Mesoporous carbon materials derived from artocarpus heterophyllus for water desalination and defluoridation using capacitive deionization
Joyce Elisadiki
Abstract:Sustainable clean water for human use can be attained through cost-effective water purification technologies whereby capacitive deionization (CDI) technology is among them. To attain high CDI performance porous carbon materials with high surface area, specific capacitance, and good chemical stability are essential. In this study, high surface area mesoporous carbon has been synthesized from jackfruit peels (Artocarpus heterophyllus) through chemical activation method. Two different activation routes were used;… Show more
