Effect of some process parameters on the main properties of activated carbon produced from peat in a lab-scale process
Abstract Activated carbons (ACs) are widely used in different industrial processes as adsorbents for pollutant removal or as catalytic material support. The parameters and methods of activation can vary, and they affect the final characteristics of ACs, e.g., specific surface area, pore size distrib...
