Malachite green adsorption onto palm kernel shell activated carbon / Hanis Farzana Hafizul

Palm kernel shells (PKS) were used to prepare activated carbon by using phosphoric acid as activating agent. The PKS were through activation processes at high temperature, 800°C for two hours in muffle furnace. Characterization of the prepared activated carbon, palm kernel shell activated carbon (PK...
