Preparation of Activated Carbon From Date Seeds And Evaluation of It Application A Review Paper
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Mechanical and Civil Engineering (IOSR-JMCE) - Year 2018, Vol 15, Issue 1
Abstract
Activated carbon (AC) is frequently used for purification due to its ability to remove pollutants either from air or water. Its porous structure allowed it to capture the pollutants and is widely recommended for numerous applications in water and wastewater treatment. However, AC application fields are restricted due to high cost. In this project, AC prepared from locally available date seeds is used for the removal of Methylene blue (MB) from Textile Water, in order to find alternative to commercial activated carbon (CAC). Physical properties of date seeds activated carbon (DSAC) and CAC were compared and batch adsorption processes were obtained to find the best condition for using DSAC in the removal of MBA. The experimental outcomes found that DSAC got high percentage removal and it has a good potential for economic removal of MB.
