Mesoporous Activated Carbon from Bamboo Waste via Microwave-Assisted K<sub>2</sub>CO<sub>3</sub> Activation: Adsorption Optimization and Mechanism for Methylene Blue Dye
Bamboo waste (BW) was activated with a K<sub>2</sub>CO<sub>3</sub> precursor in a microwave process for the adsorption of MB dye from an aqueous solution. The prepared bamboo-waste-activated carbon (BWAC) was analyzed by instrumental techniques such as FTIR, SEM, and BET anal...
