Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The influence of design parameters such as dosage, experimental time and process temperature on the adsorptive removal of naphthalene and yield of the nano-FeO/carbon composite synthesized from palm shell activated carbon was determined. The involved synthesis mechanism for composite was also found to be cost-effective. Based on the composite design mechanism, various quadratic models were found out to correlate the dynamic parameters with the symmetric responses. The nano-FeO/carbon composite conditions were centrally optimized using response surface mechanism by maximizing both the yield of nano-FeO/carbon composite and uptake of naphthalene within the predetermined ranges involved in this study. The optimum parameters for synthesizing nano-FeO/carbon composite from palm shell for adsorption of naphthalene were as follows: dosage of 6 g/l, reaction time of 150 min and process temperature of 40 °C which obtained 120.87 mg/g of naphthalene uptake and 21.46% composite yield. The Langmuir model well agreed for experimental fitting of the observed data. The reaction kinetics followed the best utilization of pseudo-second-order mechanism. The experimental conditions quite agreed with the predicted results of the model. BET analysis confirmed the surface distribution to be 695 m/g and SEM analysis resulted in maximum pore development onto nano-iron oxide/carbon composite.
