Kinetic studies on carbon dioxide capture using lignocellulosic based activated carbon

CO2(Carbon dioxide) emissions are one of the greenhouse gases that cause global warming. The power generation industry is one of the main emitters of CO2, and the emissions are expected to increase in the coming years as there seems to be no abatement in the consumption of fossil fuels for the produ...
