Book Preparation and Characterization of Activated Carbon from Raw Red Macroalgae and Bio Char from Macroalgae

Download or read book Preparation and Characterization of Activated Carbon from Raw Red Macroalgae and Bio Char from Macroalgae written by Bouaik Hassan and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This article discusses the preparation and characterization of activated carbon by the combined method (combination of two methods of chemical activation by ZnCl 2 and physical CO 2 ) leads to essentially microporous coals with specific BET specific surfaces which can exceed 800 m 2 /g. It is generally obtained by the BET method which is based on the adsorption capacity (in vapor phase) of nitrogen at 77 K and the steric hindrance of the N2 molecule. Microporous activated carbon prepared from Moroccan red macroalgae can be used as excellent carriers for adsorbing small molecules like heavy metals and other organic molecules like pesticides. This work was devoted to the characterization of active carbon prepared from red macroalgae with H 3 PO 4 , ZnCl 2 , CO 2 , H 3 PO 4 / CO 2 , ZnCl 2 / by TFIR, BET and SEM.

Book Lignocellulosic Precursors Used in the Synthesis of Activated Carbon

Download or read book Lignocellulosic Precursors Used in the Synthesis of Activated Carbon written by Virginia Hernández Montoya and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2012-02-29 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present book discusses the principal lignocellulosic precursors used in the elaboration of activated carbons in different countries such as Asia, America, Europe and Africa; the different methods and experimental conditions employed in the synthesis of activated carbons, including one analysis of the principal stages of the preparation such as carbonization and activation (i.e., chemical or physical activation). Also, the recent and more specialized techniques used in the characterization of activated carbons are discussed in this book. For example, the techniques employed to determine textural parameters (mercury porosimetry and gas adsorption isotherms at 77 K) and different spectroscopies to determine chemical functionality (Raman, FT-IR, etc.) and other X-Ray techniques. Additionally, an overview of the application of activated carbons obtained from lignocellulosic precursors for wastewater treatment. Specifically, the analysis and discussion are focused on the advantages and capabilities of activated carbons for the removal of relevant toxic compounds and pollutants from water such as heavy metals, dyes, phenol, etc. Finally, the use of pyrolysis method for the valorization of two Mexican typical agricultural wastes (orange peel and pecan nut shell) for energy and carbon production is considered in this book.

Book Analysis of the Pore Structure of Activated Carbons Produced from Paper Mill Sludge Using Small Angle Neutron Scattering Data

Download or read book Analysis of the Pore Structure of Activated Carbons Produced from Paper Mill Sludge Using Small Angle Neutron Scattering Data written by and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A novel, cost-effective, and environmentally benign process was developed to produce highly efficient carbon-based adsorbents (CBAs) from paper mill sludge. The production process required chemical activation of sludge using zinc chloride and pyrolysis at 750 C in N2 gas. The produced CBAs were characterized according to their surface area and pore size distribution using N2-BET adsorption isotherm data. Further characterization of the surface and pore structure was conducted using a unified exponential/power law approach applied to small angle neutron scattering (SANS) data. The structural features analyzed by SANS revealed the dependence of porosity with zinc chloride concentration. The presence of inaccessible pores was also determined by contrast-match experiments.

Book Solid Waste Management

Download or read book Solid Waste Management written by Garima Chauhan and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-12-01 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘Waste’ is generally identified as goods or material that are perceived to be mostly valueless. However, objects that are perceived to be waste based on consumers’ object valuation can be redefined to create value. This requires a multitude of efforts using different strategies in waste prevention and management. This book is an edited collection of various chemical approaches used for valorization of solid wastes, particularly, waste electrical and electronic equipment, plastic waste, and agro-residue waste, that provide research insights into the concept "waste-to-energy". Covering a variety of interdisciplinary topics on waste treatment and resource recovery makes the book one for all that serves as an excellent reading material for engineers, science scholars, entrepreneurs, and organizations who are working in the field of waste management.

  • Pages : 377 pages

Download or read book Biomass and Bioenergy written by Khalid Rehman Hakeem and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-08-25 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biomass obtained from agricultural residues or forest can be used to produce different materials and bioenergy required in a modern society. As compared to other resources available, biomass is one of the most common and widespread resources in the world. Thus, biomass has the potential to provide a renewable energy source, both locally and across large areas of the world. It is estimated that the total investment in the biomass sector between 2008 and 2021 will reach the large sum of $104 billion. Presently bioenergy is the most important renewable energy option and will remain so the near and medium-term future. Previously several countries try to explore the utilization of biomass in bioenergy and composite sector. Biomass has the potential to become the world’s largest and most sustainable energy source and will be very much in demand. Bioenergy is based on resources that can be utilized on a sustainable basis all around the world and can thus serve as an effective option for the provision of energy services. In addition, the benefits accrued go beyond energy provision, creating unique opportunities for regional development. The present book will provide an up-to-date account of non-wood, forest residues, agricultural biomass (natural fibers), and energy crops together with processing, properties and its applications to ensure biomass utilization and reuse. All aspects of biomass and bioenergy and their properties and applications will be critically re-examined. The book consists of three sections, presenting Non wood and forest products from forestry, arboriculture activities or from wood processing, agricultural biomass (natural fibers) from agricultural harvesting or processing and finally energy crops: high yield crops and grasses grown especially for energy production.
