Abstract

The increasing use of household materials made of stainless steel also causes more metal waste to be produced. Stainless waste is considered dangerous because it contains several heavy metal compounds such as Ci, Pb, Ni, Fe, and others, so it is necessary to treat stainless waste. Stainless slag and stainless dust can be processed into products with high selling value such as pigments or dyes. In this research, Prussian Blue pigment was synthesized from Fe waste obtained from iron fiber waste. Apart from knowing the yield of the Prussian Blue synthesis, the effect of adding TiO2 on the intensity of the resulting color was observed. This study used a hydrometallurgical method using acid leaching to produce Prussian blue color pigments. The Prussian blue pigment conversion value produced in experiment 1 was 79.63%, experiment 2 was 80.36%, experiment 3 was 83.63%, and experiment 4 was 82.40%. The yield value of Prussian blue pigment in experiment 1 was 1.230 gram Prussian blue/gram iron, experiment 2 was 1.142 gram Prussian blue/gram iron, experiment 3 was 1.305 gram prussian blue/gram iron, and experiment 4 was 1.807 gram prussian blue/gram iron. Overall this method can process waste iron (stainless steel) into Prussian blue color pigment.

Abstract

Abstract. Supercapacitors are energy storage devices widely used in electronics, representing a significant breakthrough in energy storage technology. Known as electric double-layer capacitors (EDLC), supercapacitors are electrochemical energy storage systems with higher power density than batteries. The material used to produce supercapacitor electrodes is waste from Nypa shells. The Nypa shells contain 36.5% cellulose, 21.8% hemicellulose, and 27.3% lignin. The production process uses the pyrolysis method to produce activated carbon, which is then used as supercapacitor electrode material. The SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope) test shows that all samples have different pore cavity structures in activated carbon. The EDX (Energy Dispersive X-ray) test shows that all activated carbon samples contain C, O, Mg, Si, and Ca elements. Based on FTIR (Fourier transform Infrared Spectroscopy) analysis showed that all samples had the same wave pattern and the presence of functional groups in the form of O-H, C=C, C-H, and C ≡ C was detected. The BET test (Brunauer – Emmett – Teller) shows that activated carbon with C-NPS-Ox has a specific surface area, micropore surface area, total pore volume, and average pore diameter values of 989.3 m2/g, 537.1 m2/g, 56.5 cm3/g, and 11.4 nm. The CV (Cyclic Voltammetry) test shows that the C-NPS-Ox sample with a scan rate of 10 mV/s has the highest specific capacitance value, 142.44 F/g. Keywords:Nypa Palm Shell, Activated Carbon, Electrode, Supercapacitor.
