Removal of manganese(II) ions from aqueous solutions by adsorption on activated carbon derived a new precursor: Ziziphus spina-christi seeds

In this paper, activated carbon was prepared from Ziziphus spina-christi seeds (ZSAC) to remove Mn(II) from aqueous solutions. To characterize the adsorptive characteristics of the produced active carbon, surface area was calculated using the standard Brunauer–Emmet–Teller method. The microstructure...
