The optimum condition for the synthesis of carbon nanofibers on activated carbon to remove lead from aqueous solution

Optimum process condition for the production of Carbon Nanofibers (CNFs) to remove lead ion (Pb) from aqueous solution is reported here. The CNFs were produced on the catalyst (Ni2+) impregnated palm oil-based cheap Powder Activated Carbon (PAC). Locally fabricated Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD) s...
