Article Synopsis
- This study shows how waste rice noodles can be turned into a low-cost activated carbon material loaded with nano-silver that effectively adsorbs contaminants and kills bacteria.
- The materials are created by first converting the noodles into hydrothermal carbon, then combining it with silver nitrate and sodium hydroxide, and finally activating it through high-temperature calcination.
- The resulting composite exhibits a high surface area and significant adsorption ability for heavy metals, specifically Cr(VI), and demonstrates strong antibacterial effects against common pathogens.
