| description |
Wastes from agricultural products are abundant, suitable to be used as precursor
for producing activated carbons. These wastes, instead of causing significant disposal
problems, can be turned into by-products for industries by utilizing them fur
manufacturing activated carbons.
Carbonization and activation processes were done in the Tubular Carbolite
Furnace. N₂ gas was flowed for the first 3 hours followed by CO₂ gas for the next 1 hour
on the precursor at the constant temperature of 500°C. Par the H₃PO₄ impregnation, 30
grams of the palm shells were impregnated with 15 ml ofH3P04 and diluted with 100 ml
of distilled water to produce 2.2 M H₃PO₄ solution. For the K₃PO₄, 30 grams of palm
shells were impregnated with 9 g of K₃PO₄ and diluted with 100 ml of distilled water to
produce 9% w/w K₃PO₄ solution. For the KOH impregnation, 30 grams or palm shells
were impregnated with 9 g of KOH and diluted with 100 ml of distilled water to produce 9 % w/w KOH solution. |
