Large surface area activated carbon from low-rank coal via microwave-assisted KOH activation for methylene blue adsorption
Merit Kapit (MK) as a low-rank Malaysian coal was utilized as a precursor to develop a large surface area activated carbon (MKAC) via a microwave-induced KOH activation. The characterizations of the raw MK and MKAC were investigated by surface area analysis, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffr...
