Waste toner powders are considered as hazardous materials to human and living things, and should be properly recycled by many effective ways due to their fine particle sizes and complex components. In this paper, waste toner powders were used as raw materials to successfully synthesize three dimensions (3D) graphene oxide (GO) hydrogel by means of a one-pot chemical transformation based on the improved Hummers’ method. The obtained 3D GO hydrogel has porous structure and abundant oxygen-containing functional groups because of the inherent 3D solid structure of waste toner powder and the strong oxidation process of the improved Hummers’ method. Interestingly, the as-prepared 3D GO hydrogel with excellent adsorptive property could quickly remove Pb(II) ions (100 mg/L, removal efficiency of 96% and removal capacity of 144 mg/g) and methylene blue (50 mg/L, removal efficiency of 97% and removal capacity of 48 mg/g) from water, respectively. The preparation process of 3D GO hydrogel was simple and easy to operate, and the output can be moderately mass produced, thus it would provide a new and effective disposal way for the recycling and reusing of waste toner.

Agricultural wastes are considered to be a very important feedstock for activated carbon production as they are renewable sources and low cost materials. This study present the optimize conditions for preparation of durian peel activated carbon (DPAC) for removal of methylene blue (MB) from synthetic effluents. The effects of carbonization temperature (from 673K to 923K) and impregnation ratio (from 0.2 to 1.0) with potassium hydroxide KOH on the yield, surface area and the dye adsorbed capacity of the activated carbons were investigated. The dye removal capacity was evaluated with methylene blue. In comparison with the commercial grade carbons, the activated carbons from durian peel showed considerably higher surface area especially in the suitable temperate and impregnation ratio of activated carbon production. Methylene blue removal capacity appeared to be comparable to commercial products; it shows the potential of durian peel as a biomass source to produce adsorbents for waste water treatment and other application. Optimize condition for preparation of DPAC determined by using response surface methodology was at temperature 760 K and IR 1.0 which resulted the yield (51%), surface area (786 m2/g), and MB removal (172 mg/g).
