Removal of hexachlorocyclohexane isomers from wastewater using activated carbon from Musa paradisiaca peel: Adsorption isotherms, kinetic, and thermodynamic studies

Removal of hexachlorocyclohexane isomers from wastewater using activated carbon from Musa paradisiaca peel: Adsorption isotherms, kinetic, and thermodynamic studies

The potential usage of activated carbon from plantain peel (Musa paradisiaca) (TPPC) and unactivated carbon from plantain peel (UPPC) for the removal of Hexachlorocyclohexanes (HCHs) from water systems was investigated. The TPPC and UPPC were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectrosco...
