Characterization and activation of coconut shell activated carbon Research Paper

Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 11

Abstract

In present research paper coconut shell carbon was activated by coconut shell carbon was converted into activated carbon by chemical activation using different activating agents like Cacl2, H2So4, H3Po4, KoH, and Zncl2 and thermally activated. Batch adsorption desulphurization operation was carried out at room temperature for adsorption for selection of final activation agent for continuous process.Characteristics of coconut shell activated carbon was studied such as P.H, Moisture Content, Ash content ,Volatile matter content, Ash content , Volatile matter content, Fixed carbon, Iodine Number , BET surfacearea, ScanningElectronic Microscope (SEM).
