Activated carbons (ACs) are obtained from coconut shell (endocarp) through chemical activation using H3PO4 as activating agent. Ground coconut shell is impregnated with H3PO4 for 24 and 48 h; then pyrolyzed at 600 and 800 °C. Some ACs are additionally mixed with nickel oxide (NiO) for obtaining NiO/AC composites. The …
Activated carbon removes water soluble organics and solids from water by backwashing. This MTZ has three working zones: Zone 1 (between A and B, a portion of the total length of the carbon bed) is completely used and no longer removes water-soluble contaminants. Zone 2 (between B and C) removes variable amounts of contaminants.

The use of activated carbons for adsorption, purification, and energy applications as an alternative to other porous materials such as zeolites or silica gel is a promising strategy due to its low production cost combined to a good thermochemical energy storage
1. Introduction Activated carbon is the carbonaceous material known as its large specific surface area, superior porosity, high physicochemical-stability, and excellent surface reactivity, which is widely employed as functional materials for various applications (Delgado et al., 2012, Sevilla and Mokaya, 2014, Shafeeyan et al., 2010).

According to some estimates, the global activated carbon market was valued at around $1.6 billion in 2019 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of around 6.5% from 2020 to 2025.
Activated carbon mainly relies on EDLC to achieve energy conversion, which is a process that depends on the electrostatic adsorption or desorption of ions in the energy storage material. The pore structure, SSA, and surface groups are thought to significantly affect AC-based electrode performance, particularly in aqueous environments.
In particular, the chemical activation of various carbon sources using KOH as the activating reagent is very promising because of its lower …
