Characterization Of Activated Carbon

Characterization of activated carbon from oil palm shell prepared by H3PO4and application for the removal of procion red dye was investigated. Oil palm shell was carbonized at 500°C and prepared by H3PO45 % with ratio of 1:3. Characterized activated carbon by Fourier Transform Infra Red Spectroscopy (FTIR), Brunauer Emmet Teller (BET) surface area, Scanning Electron Microscope-Energy Dispersive X Ray Spectrometry (SEM-EDS). The result indicated that functional groups on the activated carbon surface were influenced by acidic treatment. The activated carbon have surface area 385.991 m2g-1and volume of micro porous 0.201 cm3g-1. The SEM-EDS image showed that activated carbon have many porous structure and the strong peak of C was 92.7 %. Adsorption capacity of activated carbon prepared by H3PO45 % was 278.197 mg g-1which is higher than not chemical activation was 216.456 mg g-1at equilibrium time 5 h.

Oil Palm Shell

Malaysia has been acknowledged as one of the largest producer and exporter in the production of oil palm biomass. This is not surprisingly that industry contributes massive amount of the waste such as empty fruit bunches, palm mesocarpfibre, and palm kernel shell. This abundance of oil palm by-products make them an attractive source of raw material for the production of activated carbon. The activated carbon has been widely used in variety industries such as bio-catalyst, removal of toxic substance, purification of liquid and gas as well as catalyst support. The comparison of characteristic of oil palm activated carbon produced via microwave and conventional heating has been discussed in this paper. The characterization of the activated carbon includes elemental analysis, the Brunauer-Emmet-Teller (BET) surface area as well as Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) has been analyzed in this study.Hence, from the result, it shows that the SEM micrograph of oil palm shell (OPS) activated carbon prepared via microwave heating by using chemical activation produced the clearly and uniformly pore compared to full cavity and not well formed of pore in oil palm shell (OPS) activated carbon via conventional heating.

Empty Fruit Bunch

An oil palm empty fruit bunch-derived activated carbon has been successfully produced by chemical activation with zinc chloride and without chemical activation. The preparation was conducted in the tube furnace at 500oC for 1 h. The surface structure and active sites of activated carbons were characterized by means of Fourier transform infrared spectrometry and field emission scanning electron microscopy. The proximate analysis including moisture content, ash content, bulk density, pH, and pH at zero charge was conducted to identify the psychochemical properties of the adsorbent. The results showed that the zinc chloride-activated carbon has better characteristics compared to the carbon without chemical activation.

Mb Adsorption

In this research, it has been performed carbon activation of oil palm shells (CAC) prepared by chemical treatment as adsorbents of phenol and methylene blue (MB) in solution either in the form of single or in pair solution. The activation of carbon from the oil palm shells was done physically at a temperature of 700°C for 1 hour continued with chemical activation using 10% H3PO4 for 24 hours. Identification of functional groups on the carbon from oil palm shell before and after chemically activated was performed using infrared spectrophotometer (IR) and analysis of its surface morphology was carried out using scanning electron microscope (SEM). The phenol and MB adsorption process was performed in single and binary systems using the batch method. The adsorption of phenol on CAC is optimum at pH 8 while MB at pH 11 with optimum contact time of 90 min for phenol and 120 min for MB respectively. The phenol and MB adsorption data on the CAC in the single system follow the pseudo-second-order kinetics model with the adsorption rate constant of 0.399 and 0.769 g mmol-1 min-1 respectively. The adsorption isotherms of phenol and MB in CAC tend to follow Freundlich adsorption isotherm pattern with the adsorption intensity factor (n) for phenol, MB, phenol/MB, and MB/phenol: 1.739, 1.341, 1.334, and 1.293 respectively. The adsorbent of CAC is effective to remove phenol and MB in solution, either in single or paired condition.
