Abstract

Synthesis of activated carbon from cempedak peel waste is carried out to utilize biomass waste. This study aimed to synthesize and characterize activated carbon from cempedak peel waste. The synthesis was carried out by chemical activation using phosphoric acid with a dry impregnation ratio of 1:4 (g sample:g H3PO4). Samples impregnated for 24 hours were then heated at 250℃—and then calcined at 350℃ and 450℃. The XRD and FTIR characterization results indicated that the activated carbon obtained had an amorphous structure and the activated carbon obtained had hydroxyl, carbonyl, and carboxylic groups. Activated carbon with the highest yield was obtained at a temperature of 350, namely 43%. The results of determining the water content of activated carbon obtained are 8.36% at 350 0C and 7.1% at 450 ℃. The value of water content and ash content of activated carbon from the skin of this cempedak fruit has met the Indonesian National Standard (SNI 06-3730-1995). The best-activated carbon yield was at a calcination temperature of 450, with the percentage of adsorption efficiency on methylene blue of 98.88%.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Research on the characterisation of activated carbon of white snapper (Lates calcarifer) scales waste, obtained through carbonisation process, fish scales were put in a furnace at 350 oC for 2 hours. Then cooled and sieved with a 100 mesh sieve, characterised by XRD, resulting in three peaks with the strongest intensity at 2θ regions of 26.45o, 32.69o, and 33.60o respectively. The surface acidity of carbon solids before and after activation were (4.48x10-3 and 7.77x10-3) mol/g, respectively. The activation process of white snapper scales (Lates calcarifer), increases the surface area of carbon can react with other chemicals. Subsequently, it was calcined at 450 oC under vacuum conditions for 2 hours with N2 gas, and characterised by XRD. The results showed a shift in 2θ peaks of 26.52o, 29.66o, and 32.77o, respectively. The carbon was activated by soaking with 3 M KOH activator for 15 hours, washed with distilled water, and dried in an oven at 110°C for 1 hour, characterised by XRD, and the peaks with the strongest intensity were obtained at 26.22°C, 29.12°C, and 32.43°C, with increasing basal spacing. Keywords: activated carbon, white snapper scales, XRD

Abstract

This study evaluated the acid-catalyzed production of biodiesel from Calabash (Crescentia cujete) seed oil using sulfuric and nitric acids as transesterification catalysts. Oil extracted by Soxhlet extraction yielded 35.20% and was converted into biodiesel under various reaction conditions to determine the optimum catalyst loading, reaction time, temperature, and oil-to-methanol molar ratio. Sulfuric acid exhibited superior catalytic performance, achieving the highest biodiesel yield of 91.20% at 4% catalyst loading, 65 °C, 4 h, and an oil-to-methanol molar ratio of 1:12. Under optimum conditions, nitric acid produced a lower yield of 65.85% at 3% catalyst loading, 65 °C, 6 h, and a molar ratio of 1:9. GC-MS analysis identified seven methyl esters in the sulfuric acid-derived biodiesel, predominantly methyl hexadecanoate (16.93%), methyl stearate (15.07%), and methyl 9-octadecenoate (43.64%). Biodiesel synthesized using nitric acid contained eight methyl esters, with methyl hexadecanoate (16.55%), methyl stearate (26.90%), and methyl 9-hexadecenoate (21.51%) as the major components. The corresponding burning rates were 1.96 × 10⁻³ and 2.71 × 10⁻³ cm²/s for sulfuric and nitric acid catalysts, respectively. Overall, sulfuric acid proved more effective, producing higher biodiesel yield in a shorter reaction time and demonstrating the potential of C. cujete seed oil as a non-edible biodiesel feedstock.
