En la producción de carbón activado, se utilizó la metodología de superficie de respuesta con un diseño compuesto central para identificar los factores temperatura (T) y tiempo (t) de activación que maximizan el área superficial del carbón activado, el agente activante empleado fue vapor de agua. Se realizó la caracterización del carbón obtenido bajo condiciones óptimas, utilizando Normas ASTM y el método químico de Bohem para identificar grupos funcionales superficiales. Las condiciones óptimas de activación de carbón activado por activación física son T = 550.98 °C y un t = 122.76 min obteniendo como resultado un área superficial de 917 mg/g, con lo que se cumple el objetivo de haber aplicado la metodología de superficie de respuesta para optimizar las condiciones de producción de carbón activado, por activación física, cumpliendo con los requerimientos de calidad que el mercado demanda.]]></p></abstract>
