Abstract The present study focuses on the preparation of activated carbon (AC) from grape leaves as a low cost, non-toxic, efficient and available adsorbent for removal methylene blue (MB) aqueous solution. experimental design data modeling have been carried out using response surface methodology (RSM) through DoE software version 8.0.0. effect independent variables including initial dye concen...

In this study, activated carbon was produced from platanus orientalis leaves and the adsorption of methylene blue onto investigated. Facile chemical activation route conducted for process lignocellulosic leaves. ZnCl2 used as activating agent with different ratios. Morphological, structural characteristics samples were determined by using optical microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectrosc...
