摘要：

Activated carbons were prepared florin walnut shells by vacuum chemical activation with zinc chloride as the activation agent To optimize the preparation method the effects of the main process parameters (such as system pressure activation temperature and impregnation ratio) on the properties (expressed in terms of specific surface area and pore volume) of the obtained activated carbons were studied It was found that the optimum activated carbon obtained with system pressure of 30 kPa activation temperature of 450 C and impregnation ratio of 2 0 has a BET sui face area of 1800 m(2)/g and total pore volume of 1 176 cm(3)/g The prepared activated carbons were characterized by SEM TEM and FTIR Then they were used as an adsorbent for the removal of methylene blue from aqueous solutions The results showed that the methylene blue adsorption capacity was positively correlated to the BET surface area The highest methylene blue adsorption capacity was 315 mg/g for the optimum activated carbon The effect of the dose of the activated carbon was evaluated and the adsorption isotherm of methylene blue was determined Redlich-Peterson and Langmuir-Freundlich models were found to best represent the equilibrium data suggesting heterogeneous surface adsorption of methylene blue on the activated carbon (C) 2010 Elsevier B V All rights reserved
