Oil-palm shell wastes were successfully converted into useful activated carbons in a systematic and novel approach by optimizing the pyrolysis conditions and subsequent steam activation conditions to maximize the BET surface area. The optimal activation conditions were a steam flow rate of 1.13 kg/h...
