Batch sorption–desorption of As(III) from waste water by magnetic palm kernel shell activated carbon using optimized Box–Behnken design

Abstract In this study, we converted activated carbon (AC) into magnetic activated carbon (MAC), which was established to have removed arsenic (III) from wastewater. Arsenic (III) is a toxic heavy metal which is readily soluble in water and can be detrimental to human health. The MAC was prepared by...
