The advantages of palm kernel shell (PKS) as a renewable and sustainable material for activated carbon production have been explored for various applications such as water treatment, pollutant, pesticide, and heavy metal adsorption. However, the full promises of this material for energy storage devices have not been duly studied. In this research, PKS is physically activated and the effect of particle size on the physical characteristics of the activated char was investigated. Pellet (3 mm), granules (0.4 mm), and powder (0.0075 mm) are the sizes considered in the experiment. The surface morphology, surface area, porosity and functional group at different sized was analyzed. Finally, a suitable particle size was recommended for the electrode material of supercapacitor based on the physical characteristics of the activated carbon.

The stimulation of bacterial respiration by clay minerals was related to certain physicochemical characteristics of clays. Respiration increased with an increase in the cation exchange capacity and surface area of the particles. The importance of surface area, however, could not be unequivocally established, as some of the methods used to determine this characteristic on certain clay species were questionable. Particle size did not appear to be a critical characteristic. The implications of the cation exchange capacity of clay minerals in the activity, ecology, and population dynamics of microorganisms in nature are discussed.
