Application of Agricultural Wastes Activated Carbon for Dye Removal – An Overview

Abstract: Abstract. Dyes are an important class of pollutants and can even be identified by the human eyes. Disposal of dyes in precious water resources must be avoided especially those that are not easily biodegradable, however, and for that various treatment technologies are in use. Among various methods adsorption occupies a prominent place in dye removal. The growing demand for efficient and low-cost treatment methods and the importance of adsorption has given rise to agricultural waste. This review highlights and p… Show more

“…In chemical activation both activation and carbonization is occurring simultaneously [20; 33], the precursor is mixed with a certain amount of active agents such as KOH and NaOH, H 2 SO 4 , HCl, H 3 PO 4 , and ZnCl 2 , which lead to the development of porous structures in the material [18; 27; 33; 36]. Chemical activation causes both the physical and chemical modifications of the activated carbon developed [20]. There are different kinds of dehydrating agents used for chemical activation but phosphoric acid is preferred recently due to environmental and economic concerns [37; 38].…”

“…Many industries are sources of effluents containing dyes and heavy metals, which, due to their stability and low biodegradability, may become environmentally hazardous for long periods of time . Rhodamine B (RhB), widely used in textile and food industry as dye and fluorescent water tracer, is harmful for the environment because of its carcinogenicity, neurotoxicity, and chronic toxicity…”
