In the present article, application of activated carbon derived from rice husks (RHAC) with high surface area as an electrode modifier for electrochemical determination chloramphenicol (CP) is demonstrated. The RHAC was synthesized via a two-step alkaline pretreatment followed by ultrasound radiation. obtained materials were characterized X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (S...

Abstract Ammonium ions (NH 4 + ) are commonly found in contaminated water and a contributing factor to eutrophication. Carbonized rice husk, derived from various biomass sources, possesses porous structure, its characteristics influenced by the feedstock pyrolysis conditions. Hence, this study aimed investigate applicability of carbonized husk as an absorbent for NH removal. The adsorption kine...

A thermogravimetric analyzer was used to conduct a kinetic investigation of rice husk pyrolysis. The major goal is investigate the reaction kinetics at various heating rates in an inert 99.5 percent nitrogen atmosphere. Kinetics’ importance can be explained by fact that it provides evidence for chemical process mechanisms. Understanding mechanisms help you figure out best way get happen. Furthe...
