Comparison of a Homemade Bacuri Shell Activated Carbon With Carbon Nanotubes for Food Dye Removal

Abstract: The shell of bacuri together with inorganic components [red mud þ lime þ KOH þ KAl(SO 4 ) 2 þ Al(OH) 3 ] at different ratios of 1.0 (BC-1.0), 1.5 (BC-1.5), and 2.0 (BC-2.0) were pyrolized at 1073 K. To complete the chemical activation process, the inorganic components were leached from the carbonaceous matrix through acidification with 6 M HCl under reflux to obtain ABC-1.0, ABC-1.5 and ABC-2.0. ABC-1.5 showed the highest adsorption capacity among these adsorbents. Fourier transform IR spectroscopy, scanning e… Show more

“…The band located at 1386 is ascribed to the -CH band (Umpierres et al 2018). The C-O stretching of phenolic or carboxylate Groups cause a band's emergence at 1023 cm -1 (Saucier et al 2015). The vibrational band of C-H out-of-plane of aromatics presented two bands at 637 and 470 cm -1 .…”

“…After EC optimal conditions, were found adsorption experiments were carried out with the purpose of polishing the final effluent. The granular activated carbon (VETEC) was previously treated with 6 mol/L HCl at open reflux (at boiling temperature) with a volumetric ratio of 1.5:1 (HCl:activated carbon) for 60 min, washed with distilled water and dried at 60°C for 24 h. This process was carried out to remove the inorganic material present in the activated carbon, thus causing an increase in the surface area and activation of the adsorption sites [35,36]. The surface area of the activated carbon was determined at 856.4 m 2 /g through adsorption isotherms of N 2 (BET method).…”

“…The surface area of the activated carbon was determined at 856.4 m 2 /g through adsorption isotherms of N 2 (BET method). The pH of zero charge (pH PCZ ) was determined according Saucier et al [35] using 20 mL of 0.050 mol/L NaCl and 50 mg of the adsorbent. The pH values of the solutions were adjusted from 1 to 10 with 0.1 mol/L of HCl or NaOH.…”

“…In aqueous solution, Al 3+ is a strongly hydrated ion and is found surrounded by six coordinated water molecules in an octahedral configuration. The highly positive charge on the central metal ion causes some polarization of the O-H bonds and there is a tendency for protons to dissociate giving one or more hydroxylated species [29]. The chemical reaction (3) represents this process, where the complexes of Al 3+ ions in water act as weak acids [6]:…”
