Various jute-based activated carbon fibers were prepared by using jute fibers as raw materials and phosphoric acid as activating agent. The effects of three main factors such as concentration of activating agent, activation temperature and activation time on the yield and adsorptive properties of active carbon fibers were investigated via orthogonal experiments. The surface physical morphology of jute-based activated carbon fiber was also observed by using Scanning Electron Microscope. Results showed that the optimum conditions were phosphoric acid concentration of 4 mol/L, activation temperature of 600 °C and activation time of 1h. The yield, iodine number and amount of methylene blue adsorption of the active carbon fiber prepared under optimum conditions were 37.99 %, 1208.87 mg/g and 374.65 mg/g, respectively.

Various jute-based activated carbon fibers were prepared by using jute fibers as raw materials, phosphoric acid as activating agent and activated by microwave heating. The effects of phosphoric acid concentration, microwave radiation power and microwave radiation time on the adsorption properties of activated carbon fibers were investigated to obtain optimum preparation conditions. The pore structure analysis of the activated carbon were carried out on a ASAP 2010 Surface Area and Porosimetry Analyzer. Results showed that optimum preparation conditions were phosphoric acid concentration of 4 mol/L, microwave radiation power of 385 W and microwave radiation time of 10 min. The iodine adsorption value of jute-based activated carbon fiber prepared under optimum conditions is 938.54 mg/g, the specific surface area was 1154.91 m2/g, the pore volume was 0.5997 cm3/g and the adsorption average pore diameter was 2.0772 nm. Majority of large holes in JACF prepared under optimum conditions were distributed in the diameter range of 2-4 nm, demonstrating a mesoporous structure.
