This review covers research on the use of potassium hydroxide (KOH) to produce and
modify activated carbon. The methods employed for activation by considering the activation …

In this study, we aimed to convert capsicum (Capsicum annuum L.) industrial processing
pulp (CP) into low-cost and high-quality activated carbon (AC) under optimal production …

The Brazilian agro-industrial chain generates about 291 million/tons/year of wastes, which, if
inadequately destinated, could originate social and environmental risks. There is a growing …

This work reports the use of macrophyte (Eichornia crassipes) as raw material for
preparation activated biochar (ABC) from the physical activation, using CO 2 as activating …

Activated carbon particles are obtained through hydrotherm, alkali activation, and oxygen-
limited carbonization stages. Flower-like carbon spheres with MoS 2-C-MoS 2 intercalation …

In this study, we investigated the acid (HCl) and alkali (KOH) chemical activation of açaí
seeds (Euterpe Oleraceae, Mart.) pre-treatment before pyrolysis at temperatures of 350 …

The management of the açai palm, a species of the Euterpe genus, has grown in recent
years mainly for the extraction of palm heart and the pulp of the fruit called açai. After the …

Separation of itaconic acid from aqueous solution has been explored using various carbon-
based adsorbents obtained from the pyrolysis and KOH activation of coconut shell biomass …

Soil stabilization with binders is based on the binder action on soil particles, in turn causing
an improvement in the mechanical behavior of the soil. Thus, this study aims to analyze the …

Biomass-derived products are a promising way to substitute the necessity for petroleum-
derived products, since lignocellulosic material is widely available in our atmosphere and …
