Pineapple leaf waste has a high cellulose content of around 69.5-71.5%; this shows that pineapple leaves have potential as an adsorbent in the form of activated charcoal, which functions to adsorb lead(II) metal ions. This research aims to analyze the effect of activation on the characterization results of pineapple leaf charcoal and determine the optimum adsorbent dose and optimum contact time…
