Optimization of phosphate removal from aqueous solution using activated carbon supported zero-valent iron nanoparticles: application of RSM approach

Abstract In this study, activated carbon (AC) prepared from cork powder was used in synthesis of AC stabilized nano-zero-valent iron (AC/NZVI) composite and evaluated phosphate (PO4 3−) removal efficiency from aqueous solution. The as-obtained AC/NZVI was characterized by scanning electron microscop...
