Conversion of waste to wealth has been one of the ways to reduce the volume of industrial waste to disposal site, hence reducing the impact to the environment. In this work, paint sludge from an automotive industry (APS) was converted into activated carbon through chemical activation (potassium hydroxide (KOH)) using microwave pyrolysis technique. The effect of power and radiation time on the produced activated carbon were investigated and characterised (carbon content, surface area, and pore volume) to identify the possibility of application as a supercapacitor. Potassium hydroxide activation of the APS char via microwave pyrolysis has shown that power level and radiation time has influenced the yield of the APS activated carbon. A longer radiation time and higher power supply has produced activated carbon having higher carbon contents, lower impurities, higher surface area and higher pore volume. Thus, the APS activated carbon obtained via microwave pyrolysis at power supply 1000 W and 45 minutes radiation time had produced the highest surface area and total pore volume of 434.3 m2/g and 0.2901 cm3/g, respectively. However, the produced activated carbon is not suitable for the supercapacitor application as the minimum surface area requirement must be more than 1000 m2/g. The pore size of the activated APS char produced in this study was in the range of mesopores size which was also considered very poor for supercapacitor application. The outcome of this research has shown that the produced activated carbon could otherwise be used for other application than a supercapacitor.

This study presents the preparation of activated carbon from durian shell (DShAC) and durian seed (DSeAC) based by chemical activation with potassium hydroxide (KOH) as an activating agent under the nitrogen flow. In order to find the optimum physical characteristics, variation in concentration of KOH, carbonization temperature and duration time was employed. The result shows that activated carbon from durian waste is a promising activated carbon as the highest yield was obtained from the carbonization process that occurs at 400C for four hours with the KOH concentration is 0.6 M.

This study investigated the effect of activating agent on activated carbon preparation and potential chemical oxygen demand (COD) reduction using activated carbons (AC) prepared. Zinc chloride, phosphoric acid and potassium hydroxide were utilized in impregnation of bamboo and rice husk. Result of SEM-EDX, FTIR as well as COD reduction were compared and discussed. The SEM displayed highest porosity in AC using KOH activation. FTIR analysis displayed obvious difference for each activation. AC using KOH activation obtained highest COD reduction.

Melamine (MA) were aminated with various primary alcohols (PA) such as lauryl alcohol(LA), octyl alcohol (OA) and monomethoxylpoly ethylene glycol (mPEG) under high-temperature and high-pressure conditions using potassium hydroxide / activated carbon (KOH/AC) as catalyst. The possible amination reaction mechanism was proposed based on FTIR, 1H NMR and fluorescence analysis of aminated products. The catalytic activity of KOH was improved remarkably by adding activated carbon as the catalyst support; and the maximum amination yield was about 95 %.

Adsorption Data

Char derived from pyrolysis of physic nut waste at 400-800°C was used for the preparation of activated carbon by chemical impregnation of phosphoric acid and potassium hydroxide. The original char exhibited the BET surface area in the range of 120-250 m2·g-1. The surface area increased to 480 and 532 m2·g-1 when activated with H3PO4 and KOH, respectively. Equilibrium adsorption data was found to be best represented by the Langmuir isotherm with maximum monolayer adsorption capacity of 560.13 mg·g-1 at 30°C. The adsorption capacity of the physic nut residue activated carbon was comparable to commercial activated carbon.
