Biomass-Derived Activated Carbon as a Catalyst for the Effective Degradation of Rhodamine B dye

Activated carbon (AC) was fabricated from carrot waste using ZnCl<sub>2</sub> as the activating agent and calcined at 700 °C for 2 h in a tube furnace. The as-synthesized AC was characterized using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron mic...
