摘要
In this study, a high quality of activated carbon (AC) was successfully synthesized from palm kernel shell (PKS) via single step KOH activation. Several optimal conditions such as impregnation ratio and activation temperature were investigated. The prepared activated carbon under the optimum condition of impregnation ratio (1: 1.5 raw/KOH) and activation temperature (800 degrees C) was characterized using Na2S2O3 volumetric method, CHNS/O analysis and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Na2S2O3 volumetric showed an iodine number of 994.83 mgg(-1) with yield % of 8.931 %. CHNS/O analysis verified an increase in C content for KOH-AC (61.10 %) in comparison to the raw PKS (47.28 %). Well-formation of porous structure was evidenced through SEM for KOH-AC. From this study, it showed a successful conversion of agricultural waste into value added porous material under benign condition.
