Removal of Methylene Blue from Aqueous Solutions using Chemical Activated Carbon Prepared from Jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus) Peel Waste

Dye wastewater generated is rated as the most polluting wastewater among all the industrial sectors. Adsorption using activated carbon (AC) has been proven to be effective to treat dye wastewater. In this study, jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus) peel waste has been utilized for activated carbon...
