Polyethyleneimine modified activated carbon for high-efficiency adsorption of copper ion from simulated wastewater

In this study, activated carbon (AC) was chemically activated using sodium hydroxide (NaOH), and polyethyleneimine (PEI) was grafted onto the AC using glutaraldehyde as a cross-linking agent. Then the modified AC was applied to treat water samples containing copper ions (Cu2+). Preparation of AC-NaO...
