Preparation of textile sludge-derived activated carbons via KI and KOH activation for fast and efficient removal of methylene blue

Textile sludge is a promising precursor of activated carbon. In this work, textile sludge-based activated carbons (TSACs) were prepared at different activation temperatures (400°C–800°C) and times (0.5, 1, and 2 h) using a mixture of potassium iodide (KI) and potassium hydroxide (KOH). The impregnat...
