Phenol and methylene blue adsorption on heat-treated activated carbon: Characterization, kinetics, and equilibrium studies

A comprehensive study was performed for a thermally treated activated carbon to evaluate the influence of this treatment on the physical and chemical properties of the mineral activated carbon, as well as the adsorption toward phenol and methylene blue. After the heat treatment, surface area decreas...
