Adsorptive capacity of activated carbon derived from rice husks for azo dye removal from solution

Abstract This study aimed at developing low-cost adsorbents from waste rice husk which is a nuisance to farmers through sulfuric (H2SO4) and phosphoric (H3PO4) acid treatment. The raw rice husk (RRH) was treated with 85% H3PO4 and H2SO4 and calcined at 500 °C in a muffle furnace. The effects of init...
