| Abstract: | Activated carbon was prepared from almond and apricot shells which are a waste material abundantly found. Physical methods were used for activation of almond and apricot shells which involved washing and drying followed by Pyrolyzing in muffle furnace at 450 degree Celsius for two hours and then conversion to a fine powdered form. The various physical and chemical properties of these activated almond and apricot shells were analyzed. The adsorption of hexavalent chromium on activated shells was studied. The adsorption process parameters like pH contact time, adsorbent dose and temperature were optimized. |
