Abstract:
Over the past few years, activated carbon (AC) has attained significant attention as an efficient adsorbent for heavy metal (lead, cadmium, chromium etc.) removal. In Bangladesh, bagasse and jute fibre are the two most potential raw materials for producing activated carbon due to their high availability and low cost. The activated carbon was produced by thermal treatment method. The produced AC were characterized using FTIR, XRD, SEM etc. Batch experiments under agitation was also carried out for adsorption of heavy metals and then characterized using AAS (Atomic Adsorption Spectroscopy). Adsorption with commercially available activated carbon was also done to use as standard. Among all ACs produced in this study, the highest percentage removal of heavy metals which were Cr3+ and Cd2+ was at 57.06% and 43.01% respectively for J-400 ( AC produced from jute fibre at 4000C). This obtained value was 16.6% and 12.9% higher in comparison to Commercially available Activated carbon for Cr3+ and Cd2+ respectively.
Keywords: Adsorption, Activated carbon, dyes, isotherm.
