Pore Structures and Electric Double Layer Properties of Activated Carbon Derived from Demineralized Spent Coffee Grounds

To improve the specific surface area (SSA) of steam activated carbon that has been prepared from spent coffee grounds (SCG), a demineralization of the SCG was conducted. As the ash content of the SCG decreased, fine micropores developed during the activation, leading to a significant increase in the...
