Abstract

The separation of heavy metals, zinc (Zn) and chromium (Cr), in biosolid waste can be carried out by an extraction process using H2SO4 as a solvent. The extraction process was carried out with a variation of time agitation and sulfuric acid concentration. The extracted cake was then analyzed using the atomic absorption spectrophotometry (AAS) method. The most effective reduction in Zn and Cr levels was obtained at 120 minutes and a solvent concentration of 1.5M with an efficiency of 98.80% and 97.89%, respectively.

Abstract

Batu bara merupakan batuan organik yang terbentuk dari fosil tumbuhan yang berwarna gelap dan terasosiasi oleh kandungan mineral seperti abu dan belerang. Ada 3 tingkatan yang terdapat dalam batu bara antara lain lignit, bituminus, dan antrasit. Antrasit merupakan jenis batu bara terbaik dikarenakan memiliki kandungan karbon terbesar diantara ketiganya, untuk itu pada penelitian ini digunakan batu bara jenis Antrasit. Kandungan karbon yang terdapat pada batu bara dapat dimanfaatkan untuk menjadi karbon aktif yang berfungsi sebagai adsorben. Metode yang digunakan yaitu gabungan antara metode fisika dan kimia, dimulai dengan proses dehidrasi, karbonisasi, dan aktivasi. Hasil yang didapatkan ialah rasio penggunaan KOH dan suhu optimum terbaik untuk mengaktivasi batu bara antrasit ada pada perbandingan batu bara terhadap KOH 1:5 pada suhu 700°C dengan kadar air sebesar 9,9%, kadar abu sebesar 9,9%, kadar zat terbang sebesar 13%, kadar karbon terikat sebesar 77,1%, serapan iodin sebesar 1040,58 mg/g, dan luas permukaan sebesar 317,328 m2/g.

Abstract

Activated carbon is a commonly used medium for adsorption to combat environmental pollution in both water and air. It is produced from plant or plantation waste containing carbon. Jackfruit skin, often considered as plantation waste, contains lignocellulosic compounds and has the potential to be used as active carbon. Activated carbon from jackfruit skin has a good absorption capacity and can absorb heavy metal waste such as lead (Pb). A recent study aimed to evaluate the absorption effectiveness of active carbon from jackfruit skin. The process involved making activated carbon using the pyrolysis method, and then analyzing its lead absorption capacity in lead nitrate solution by varying the weight of the activated carbon (10g, 15g, 20g, 25g, 30g) and the adsorption time in minutes (40, 60, 80, 100, 120). The levels of absorbed lead on activated carbon were tested using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS) at a wavelength of 283.3 nm. The research findings indicate that the effectiveness of activated carbon absorption reaches 99%, and the appropriate equation model for the adsorption process is the Freundlich isotherm, indicating a multilayer adsorption process.Keywords:Adsorption Isotherm, Activated Carbon Jackfruit Skin, Lead (Pb)
