Microwave‐synthesized Pepper Peduncle Carbon, Characterization, and Its Adsorption Studies

Abstract: Adsorption on activated carbon is an efficient method for the removal of toxic dyes. However, since commercially available charcoal is quite expensive, activated carbon obtained from agricultural by‐products may serve as a good replacement. In this study, activated carbon was prepared from pepper peduncle, an agricultural waste product, by microwave activation. The synthesized carbon was characterized by X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and thermal gravi… Show more

“…Coal tar or any other condensable liquid containing hydrocarbons that can be used to produce liquid fuels via catalytic upgradation is a primary product of coal pyrolysis . Cold solvent trapping, solid‐phase adsorption, and condensation are the general methods used to collect coal tar, and they have proven to be effective for tar collection, especially the first two .…”
