Methylene blue removal using a low-cost activated carbon adsorbent from tobacco stems : kinetic and equilibrium studies

The aim of this study was to prepare activated carbon from tobacco stalks using microwave heating. The prepared activated carbon was applied as an adsorbent in methylene blue (MB) removal from water. The optimum conditions for activated carbon preparation were a radiation power of 280 W for a period...
