Effect of treating activated carbon derived from date pits with H2SO4 on the adsorption of methylene blue dye molecules: kinetic, equilibrium and thermodynamic studies
Water and wastewater treatment and reuse
In this work, untreated activated carbon (UDP-AC) and activated carbon chemically treated with H₂SO₄ (TDP-AC) were successfully synthesized from date pits, a solid waste material. Characterization was performed on both UDP-AC and TDP-AC, and both samples were used to adsorb methylene blue (MB) dye...
Removal of methylene blue using activated carbon prepared from date stones activated with NaOH
Water and wastewater treatment and reuse
Synthetic dyes have a hurtful effect on human health and the environment. In this work, activated carbon was produced from date stones for use in elimination of methylene blue charged in aqueous solutions. Before that, the adsorbent was characterized by BET method, SEM, X-ray and TGA. The results of...
