Preparation and characterization of mesoporous activated carbons from waste tyre

Mesoporous activated carbon was prepared from waste tyres via acid wash and steam activation. The effect of synthetic conditions was studied and the surface texture of the tyre carbon was characterized. The optimally obtained carbon sample presents a surface area of ∼1200 m2 g−1 and is predominantly...
