One Step Carbonization/Activation Process for Carbonaceous Material Preparation from Pecan Shells for Tartrazine Removal and Regeneration after Saturation

The removal of tartrazine dye (A5) onto activated carbon produced from pecan nut shells ( Carya illinoinensis ) obtained under specific conditions and one step simultaneous carbonization/activation process was carried out in this work. First order, pseudo-second order and Elovich adsorption kinetic...
