Carbonization of corn (Zea mays) cob agricultural residue by one-step activation with sulfuric acid for methylene blue adsorption
Corn (Zea mays) cob, an agricultural biomass residue, was carbonized by chemical activation with H2 SO4 and examined for its suitability as a low-cost adsorbent for methylene blue (MB) adsorption from aqueous solution. Carbonized corn cob (CCC) was characterized by a CHNS-O analysis, Fourier transfo...
