Banana stem based activated carbon as a low-cost adsorbent for methylene blue removal: Isotherm, kinetics, and reusability
A low-cost activated carbon from the banana stem (ACBS) was produced to contribute to environmental preservation in removing methylene blue from wastewater. It is originated from abundant agricultural waste and produced at moderate pyrolysis temperature and short pyrolisis time. In the ACBS producti...

A low-cost activated carbon from the banana stem (ACBS) was produced to contribute to environmental preservation in removing methylene blue from wastewater.

The treatment significantly improved the ACBS surface area to 837.453 m2/g. The influence of the ACBS dose and initial concentration of dye solution at various contact times were investigated in this study. The utilization of ACBS in low doses exhibited high removal efficiency of methylene blue (0.05 to 0.3 g/100 mL).
