Treatment of biotreated palm oil mill effluent using powdered activated carbon produced from palm empty fruit bunch

Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC) was produced from empty fruit bunch (EFB) precursors by CO2 activation at 800¬0C, N2 (2.5 L/min) for 30 mins and CO2 (0.1L/min) for 15 mins. Batch adsorption was conducted using Biotreated palm oil mill effluent (BPOME) under various conditions such as agitation (100...
