Revalorizing a Pyrolytic Char Residue from Post-Consumer Plastics into Activated Carbon for the Adsorption of Lead in Water

This work focuses on the use of a char produced during the pyrolysis of a mixture of non-recyclable plastics as a precursor for the preparation of porous activated carbon with high developed adsorption uptake of lead in water. Physical and chemical activation was used to enhance the porosity, surfac...
