The feasibility of a chitosan-coated coconut-shell (CS) carbon composite for landfill leachate treatment in a fixed-bed study was investigated in terms of COD and NH3-N removal. The surface of the composite was characterized using SEM, FT-IR, and XRD to assess any changes before and after column ope...
