Statistical analysis for malachite green removal using palm-kernel-shell-activated carbon

Malaysia is a country with luxurious agricultural resources. However, without proper management, the waste resulted from processing activities of these agricultural process will lead to a major waste problem. This study involved the utilization of the palm kernel shell (PKS) activated carbon by p...
