Sustainable sewage sludge biosorbent activated carbon for remediation of heavy metals: Optimization by response surface methodology

Sustainable sewage sludge biosorbent activated carbon for remediation of heavy metals: Optimization by response surface methodology

This study investigated the potential use of sewage sludge-based activated carbon in the removal of copper (Cu) and cadmium (Cd) ions from aqueous solutions. The activated carbon (AC) was prepared by chemical activation using potassium hydroxide KOH and heating in a tube furnace at 600 °C for 2 h. T...
