Lignocellulosic waste and activated carbon production method

Lignocellulosic waste corresponds to a large percentage of in the world. Over time research has been developed for use these. This can be converted into activated carbon. The objective this scientific article is carry out bibliographic review carried on lignocellulosic and carbon production methods. applied methodology based qualitative approach, which comparison sought obtaining methods, their precursors, variables considered quality evaluation. chemical activation method turned bethe most effective since it provides greater adsorption capacity; feasible residues used are sugar cane bagasse, coffee husk, potato weed, bamboo.
