Porosity development in activated carbon from palm kernel and coconut shell by chemical activation method by Rahman, Md. Mokhlesur, Adil, Mohammad, Yusof, Alias Mohd

“…The bigger hysteresis loop indicates higher mesoporosity in coconut shell derived carbon whereas palm kernel shell derived carbon showed a higher macroporosity nature Prolong sinking of the precursor in H3PO4 impregnation solution followed by carbonization at moderate temperature (450-500 0C) produces carbon of high surface area with a higher macroporosity. …”

Climate change adaptation and mitigation through land use decision making in Malaysia by Syed Abdul Kader, Sharifah Zubaidah, Mustafa, Maizatun, Sufian, Azlinor

“…Mitigation, on the other hand, refers to actions taken to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (one of the main causes of global warming) and to enhance carbon sinks to lessen the impacts of climate change. Land use decision making is the process of arriving at decisions by approving authorities in respect of approving or rejecting applications relating to land, planning, building and the environment. …”
