  • Can activated carbon be used in wastewater treatment?
  • Synthesis of activated carbon Up to date, commercial activated carbon (AC) used in wastewater treatment is produced from coals, woods, coconut shells, and lignite [16, 17]. Activated carbons possess several desirable properties that enable their use in adsorption.
  • What is activated carbon used for?
  • Due to large surface area and pore volume of the activated carbon, it can be employed in the removal of color, odor, and taste from water and wastewater. It can also be applicable for the recovery of natural gas and air purification in inhabited spaces, such as chemical industries, and it can act as catalyst and catalyst support material [1, 2].
  • Are activated carbons effective in removing pollutants from aqueous solutions?
  • Activated carbons are proven to be effective in the removal of various pollutants from aqueous solutions, including dyes, pharmaceutical personal care products (PPCPs), heavy metals, and organic pollutants. Dyes are one of the heavy pollutants which affect water bodies, due to the usage of dyes in paints, clothing, paper products, and plastics.
