摘要

Abstract

Date palm fiber (DPF) derived from agrowaste was utilized as a new precursor for the optimized synthesis of a cost-effective

nanostructured

powder-activated carbon (nPAC) for aluminum (Al

) removal from aqueous solutions using carbonization

KOH activation

response surface methodology (RSM) and central composite design (CCD). The optimum synthesis condition

activation temperature

time and impregnation ratio were found to be 650℃

1.09 hour and 1:1

respectively. Furthermore

the optimum conditions for removal were 99.5% and 9.958 mg·g

-1

in regard to uptake capacity. The optimum conditions of nPAC was analyzed and characterized using XRD

FTIR

FESEM

BET

TGA and Zeta potential. Moreover

the adsorption of the Al

conditions was optimized with an integrated RSM-CCD experimental design. Regression results revealed that the adsorption kinetics data was well fitted by the pseudo-second order model

whereas the adsorption isotherm data was best represented by the Freundlich isotherm model. Optimum activated carbon indicated that DPF can serve as a cost-effective precursor adsorbent for Al

removal.
