Optimization of Activated Carbon Synthesis using Response Surface Methodology to Enhance H2S Removal from Refinery Wastewater

Optimization of Activated Carbon Synthesis using Response Surface Methodology to Enhance H2S Removal from Refinery Wastewater

The main point of this study is to investigate the optimal conditions for preparation of activated carbon from wood sawdust (ACWSD) for removal of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) from wastewater. The response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to prepare the ACWSD by chemical activation with potassiu...
