Preparation of Active Carbon by Additional Activation with Potassium Hydroxide and Characterization of Their Properties

A commercially available activated carbon was used to prepare active carbon via reactivation with KOH at 750°C. Active carbon was obtained with 60.5% yield. The resulting active carbon showed a well-developed porous structure with specific surface area 2939 m2/g, total pore volume 1.488 cm3/g, and m...
