Abstract
En 中文
The development of sustainable hybrid adsorbents is crucial for advancing adsorption-based water treatment technologies. In this work, a hierarchical AC/γ-Al2O3 composite derived from sugarcane bagasse was synthesized via a mild H2SO4-assisted activation process at 120 °C, providing a low-energy alternative to conventional high-temperature activation routes. The resulting material exhibited a hierarchical porous structure and a high specific surface area of 1740 m²/g.
