Adsorption Properties of Activated Carbons Prepared from Recycled PET in the Removal of Organic Pollutants from Aqueous Solutions
Activated carbons (ACs) were prepared from recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET) by chemical activation with KOH and used successfully for the removal of 4-chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetic acid (MCPA) and Methylene Blue (MB) from aqueous media. In order to improve the adsorption capacity towards pol...
