Pembuatan Dan Karakterisasi Karbon Aktif Limbah Filter Rokok Sebagai Adsorben Menggunakan Aktivator Koh Dan Iradiasi Gelombang Mikro
In this research, activated carbon has been successfully fabricated using waste
Cigarette of red Marlboro filters as a starting material. Through the process of
carbonization and chemical activation using KOH with the aid of microwave
irradiation power. The activation process used KA: KOH with the ratio of 2:1, 2:2
and 2:3 for 24 hours. Activated carbon was characterized using Scanning Electron
Microscope and Energy Dispersive X-ray, X-ray Diffraction, isothermal nitrogen
adsorption and absorption of methylene blue. The results of X-ray diffraction
showed that activated carbon has a semi-crystalline structurs with peaks 2θ of
22,873˚ and 43,700˚. Activated carbon microstructure analysis showed that the
layer height (Lc) is inversely proportional to the width of the layer (La) and the
distance between the two layers of d002 and d100 which depends significantly on
the number of elements used KOH. The best surface area of activated carbon
produced from variation of KA: KOH with the ratio of 2:3 that was 328.13 m2/ g.
The highest absorption of methylene blue was found to be 88.7671 mg/g for the
ratio of 2:3 of KA: KOH.
Keywords : Waste cigarette filters, activated carbon, chemical activation,
microwave irradiation and methylene blue.
