Single-step pyrolysis of biomass waste-derived activated carbon encapsulated zero-valent nickel NPs for the purification of antibiotic-contaminated water

Abstract

In this work, zero-valent nickel NPs immobilized on biowaste-based activated carbon (ZVNi@AC) was prepared by a single-step pyrolytic reduction/activation method. The ZVNi@AC was characterized using various techniques, including BET, SEM,...
