Manufacture of Low-cost Activated Carbon Using Sago Palm Bark and Date Pits by Physiochemical Activation

Two raw materials, sago palm bark (SPB) and date pits, were utilized as precursors to prepare high porosity activated carbon (AC). The porosity of these two raw materials was compared with that of commercial AC made from coconut shells. The physicochemical activation method was used for AC preparati...
