Steam-activated carbon from malt bagasse: Optimization of preparation conditions and adsorption studies of sunset yellow food dye

In this work the malt bagasse was used as precursor for preparation of activated carbon (AC) via physical activation with steam. The variables involved in the preparation process as temperature and time of activation, and steam flow, were evaluated and optimized from rotatable central composite desi...
