Optimization of Areca catechu fronds as adsorbent for decolorization and COD removal of wastewater through the adsorption process

Areca catechu fronds show higher capability for removal of color and COD and were utilized as an adsorbent for adsorption process. Areca catechu fronds activated carbon (AC) undergoes activation process after carbonization under purified carbon dioxide and turned as activated carbon. Three variables...
