Activated carbons (ACs) obtained from different organic wastes have been reported in
several works, aiming the valorisation of low-cost useful materials [1]. However, organic wastes typically
contain inorganic substances, which can be leached away from the prepared ACs when employed in
oxidative aqueous conditions. The current study proposes different strategies to produce ACs from a
compost obtained (in excess) during the treatment of the organic fraction of municipal solid waste by
anaerobic digestion and maturation in waste management sites.
