Utilizing Activated Carbon Developed from Banana Peels as Permeable Reactive Barrier in Copper Removal from Polluted Groundwater

The opportunity of utilizing activated carbon prepared from banana peels (BPAC) as a permeable reactive barrier (PRB) to eliminate copper (Cu+2 ) from the contaminated ground water has been explored. The activated carbon was prepared from banana peels by chemical activation utilizing a drenching age...
