Item Fabrication of activated carbon/chitosan hybrid material for adsorptive removal of pb(ii)(Lviv Polytechnic National University, Lviv, Ukraine, 2024) Perera, Rajith A.; Perera, Ruwan T.; Rajapakse, Chandima. S. K.In this study, a novel, cost-effective and envi-ronmentally friendly activated carbon/chitosan hybrid material (ACCHM) was synthesized by incorporating surface properties of both the activated carbon derived from rice husk and chitosan extracted from “Black Tiger” shrimp shells to generate a highly functionalized porous material with enhanced Pb(II) adsorption capacity for water purification.
