Adsorption of the aurocyanide, Au (CN)2 - complex on granular activated carbons derived from macadamia nut shells: A preliminary study

In this study, waste macadamia nut shells were investigated for potential use as a hard organic precursor for the production of a granular activated carbon material. The processing of the macadamia shells commenced with the carbonised of the shells under a nitrogen atmosphere. This was followed by t...
