Adsorption of hexavalent chromium in aqueous solution on activated carbon prepared from apple peels

Activated carbon prepared from apple peels (ACAP) gave an adsorption capacity of Cr(VI) better than Raw apple peels (Raw AP), Dried apple peels at 60 °C for 24 h (AP60,24), Apple peels treated with NaOH (APNaOH) and mostly important than a commercial Activated Carbon (ACCom).180
