Activated carbon derived from biomass has become a basic material that has been used widely for various applications such as absorption, absorbent, electrodes, energy storage, and other applications. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize the raw source of activated carbon which is low cost and has high porosity. Garlic skin biomass as a basic material for making activated carbon through a pre-carbonization process, chemical activation with KOH and ZnCl2 activators with concentrations of 0,25 M, 0,5 M, and 0,75 M respectively and without chemical activators. The carbonization process with a temperature of 600°C is flowed with nitrogen gas and is physically activated at a temperature of 850°C. Shrinkage of carbon by 29.4%. The density value of the carbon electrode for the KOH activator with a concentration of 0.5M is 0.64 g.cm-3 and for the ZnCl2 activator with a concentration of 0,5M is 0,71 g.cm-3. The functional groups possessed by the garlic skin electrode were identified as C-C, C = C (alkynes), C-H (alkanes), and (O-H), namely at the wave numbers 1600 cm-1, 1500 cm-1, 2950 cm-1 and 2900-3600 cm-1. The results showed that the KOH and ZnCl2 activators with a concentration of 0.5 M were the best conditions for variation in order to optimize the raw source of activated carbon and could be used in a wider variety of applications.

Abstract

Purun tikus (eleocharis dulcis) merupakan tumbuhan gulma yang bersifat polutan di perairan tawar. Efek pertumbuhan purun tikus yang cepat menyebabkan pendangkalan perairan, gangguan sistem irigasi dan pengurangan oksigen bawah air. Salah satu upaya pemanfaatan purun tikus yang bernilai tambah tinggi adalah purun tikus sebagai elektroda karbon superkapasitor. Karbon aktif berasaskan purun tikus dibuat dengan metode dua langkah secara simultan yaitu karbonisasi pada suhu 600°C dalam lingkungan nitrogen dan aktivasi fisika menggunakan uap air pada suhu 900°C selama 1 jam. Densitas karbon aktif menurun dari 0,85 menjadi 0,78 gr/cm3 setelah diaktivasi. Sifat elektrokimia elektroda karbon diukur dengan metode siklik voltammetri. Kapasitansi spesifik elektroda karbon masing-masing 58, 33 dan 23 F/g pada laju imbasan 1, 2 dan 5 mV/s. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa purun tikus dapat dijadikan elektroda superkapasitor dan menjadi solusi untuk mengurangi kerusakan ekosistem perairan tawar. Water chestnut are polluted weed plant in fresh water.

Date seed biomass as the basic material for making carbon electrodes through a pre-carbonization process, chemical activation with a KOH activator of 0.3M, the carbonization process at a temperature of 650oC flowed with nitrogen gas. Shrinkage of carbon by 24.59%. The density value of the carbon electrode that was carried out by the carbonization process was 0.852 g.cm-3. The microstructure analysis showed that the carbon electrode was amorphous indicated by the presence of a peak at an angle of 2θ around 24o and 44o. Specific capacitance was determined by the Cyclic Voltametry method and was found to be 217.22, 176.18, and 82.8 F/g respectively for the Whatman paper, filter paper, and chicken egg membrane separator variations.
