Thermal modification of activated carbon surface chemistry improves its capacity as redox mediator for azo dye reduction

The surface chemistry of a commercial AC (AC0) was selectively modified, without changing significantly its textural properties, by chemical oxidation with HNO3 (ACHNO3 ) and O2 (ACO2 ), and thermal treatments under H2 (ACH2) or N2 (ACN2 ) flow. The effect of modified AC on anaerobic chemical dye re...
