| 6 | Valorization of Natural Residue into Activated Carbon:Example of the Shells of the African Baobab Fruit(Adansonia digitata)L.显示文摘This study deals with the valorization of natural residues into activated carbon prepared from waste“Baobab fruit shell”from the Fatick Region,Senegal.Thus,after the preparation of the baobab shell,a chemical activation with orthophosphoric acid H3PO4(85%)was performed followed by pyrolysis at 530°C.To eliminate possible carbonization residues,the activated carbons were impregnated in 0.1 M hydrochloric acid and/or soda solutions and then washed thoroughly with distilled water to obtain a pH between 6.5 and 7.The latter were then dried in an oven at 105°C for 24 h.A characterization was carried out to determine the moisture content,the ash content,the iodine and methylene blue indices,the surface functions and the pH at zero charge point(pHpzc).The moisture and ash contents were 1.87%and 0.72%,respectively.The iodine and peroxide indices obtained were 939,09 mg/g and 575.73 mg/g,respectively.Surface function analysis by Boehm’s method showed that the acidic functions were higher than the basic functions and their pHpzc was lower than neutrality.The best efficiency of methylene blue removal was 99.75%and was obtained with a mass of 0.150 g of activated carbon,pH equal to 10,an initial concentration of methylene blue of 200 mg/L and a contact time of 35 min. | Edouard Mbarick Ndiaye Kalidou Ba Alioune Sow Adama Diop Yousra El Idrissi Hamza El Moudden Papa Guedel Faye Hicham Harhar Nicolas Ayessou Mohamed Tabyaoui Mady Cisse | 2022 | 材料科学与工程(中英文A版)2022，12，2： | 0 |
