Activated carbon production from sugar cane mill wastes

Activated carbons are, day by day, increasingly employed, especially for environmental remediation, as their high adsorption capacity makes them suitable for abatement of diverse pollutants from liquid and/or gaseous effluents. The extensive range of applications of these carbonaceous materials has...

description Activated carbons are, day by day, increasingly employed, especially for environmental remediation, as their high adsorption capacity makes them suitable for abatement of diverse pollutants from liquid and/or gaseous effluents.
