Effect of activation methods on the surface properties of carbonized biomass derived from fluted pumpkin stem (Telfairia occidentalis Hook F) waste
2014
International Journal of Biological and Chemical Sciences
The effect of chemical activation methods on some surface properties of carbonized biomass produced from fluted pumpkin waste was investigated using three activating reagents: H 3 PO 4 , ZnCl 2 and H 2 O 2 . The surface properties studied were moisture content, sodium sorption capacity and iodine number. The surface properties of activated carbon were compared with that of the pure carbonized sample. The results obtained shows that the sample activated with H 3 PO 4 (AM) with a sodium sorption
