Comparative Evaluation of Activated Carbons Prepared by Thermo-Chemical Activation of Lignocellulosic Residues Aiming at Phenol Removal

Abstract:

This paper presents a comparative evaluation of three lignocellulosic residues (coffee husks, spent coffee grounds and pequi husks) as precursor materials in the production of activated carbons (ACs). Results indicate that the precursor material has a significant effect in both physical and chemical aspects of the adsorbent, with the AC based on spent coffee grounds being the most effective for phenol removal, with maximum adsorption capacity comparable to commercial ACs.
