P4.8 – Activated carbon aerogel of high specific surface area and strength based on nitro-oxidized banana rachis aerogel for methylene blue dye removal
Activated carbon aerogel derived from banana rachis, an easily accessible agricultural waste, features a unique interconnected network structure that is ideal for water purification. This study investigated the preparation of activated carbon aerogel from banana rachis through four distinct processes: nitro-oxidation, lignin impregnation, carbonization, and CO 2 activation. The goal is to have a lightweight […]
