Arsenic Adsorption Kinetics of Biochar Derived from Longan Peel
Main Article Content
Abstract
This research aims to study the arsenic adsorption ability and kinetics of biochar made from longan peel. The biochar made from longan peel was pyrolysed at 300 500 700 °C for 4 h and then was dehydrated in a hot air oven at 105 °C for 24 h and was put in a desiccant jar for 24 h. For the adsorption experiment, 50 ml arsenic solution was mixed with 10 g of biochar and was shaken for 0.5 1 2 4 6 12 and 24 h using speed of 200 rpm. The experimental results showed that the biochar made from longan peel at pyrolysis temperature of 300 °C and 500 °C at 24 h had the maximum adsorption value of 34.57% and 30.77%, respectively, and at pyrolysis temperature of 700 °C at 12 h had the maximum adsorption value of 98.71%. Furthermore, at pyrolysis temperature of 300 500 700 °C, the arsenic adsorption kinetics of biochar made from longal peel were consistent with the Pseudo-second order equation and the arsenic adsorption quantities at the equilibrium point were found to be equal to 98.04, 78.12 and 238.10 mg/g, respectively.
