The Shell activated carbon for activated carbon. Activation of char prepared at 600 C. Activated carbon prepared with high temperature char had a significant amount of microspore volume. For all carbonization rates, both microspore and macrospore volumes showed maximum values of carbon burn-off. Only a small amount of mesoporous was developed in the initial stage of activation. However, there has been a rapid development in mesoporous was observed. The pattern has been shown. Therefore, the voracious interest for energizes, eco-friendliness and execution assurance and calls for natural well-disposed elective fills sources, while not over depending on petroleum derivatives. The point of this work was to deliver carbonized carbon from palm kernel shells (PKS) via carbonization strategy at temperature of 600°C. The outcomes demonstrate that the AC created from PKS upon 2 days’ corrosive impregnation pursued by carbonation periods, purged both water bodies superior to anything the others on decrease of microbial and smaller scale pollution substance of the water bodies. The ramifications of the outcomes demonstrate that generation of the carbon from PKS is esteem expansion to oil palm handling, lift to the national economy and constructive natural effect to the general population that produce and use PKS. Thus, unique thing conclusions, for instance, bio energy and bio-broil age for adsorption purposes from palm partition shells, are enabled in system endeavors as against the sole traditional start for warmth creation.

With the rapid development of our country, the statue of sports economy is becoming more and more important in the national economy. The sports economy refers to the sports related economic activities, it is the product of social and economic development to a certain period. Nowadays, the sport economy in our country is till at its initial stage comparing to some developed countries. In this paper, we analyze the sports economy impact in the national economic development. The relationships between sports economy and national economic development have been deeply researched. Finally, some conclusions are proposed in this paper.

Utilization of palm oil waste in palm kernel shells as activated carbon, the activated carbon manufacturing goes through several processes, including dehydration, carbonization, and activation. Palm shell particle size was controlled during the activated carbon synthesis process through the temperature of the milling time and carbonization processes. The carbonization process was carried out using an electric furnace at carbonization temperatures 400, 600, and 800 °C, respectively. A carbonization time was 1 hour under vacuum condition to produce initial values of particle and grain sizes that had a neat structure and had absorption capacity. The particle size of formed activated carbon was measured by PSA (particle size analyzer) type Coulter LS 100Q micron scale. The particle size of active carbon was dependent on the carbonization temperature at 400, 600, and 800 °C was obtained particle size 19,90, 9,507, and 6,264 μm, respectively. Several characterizations are required to determine the properties of activated carbon was obtained. FTIR Spectrophotometer was used to observe activated carbon’s molecule structure before and after dehydration and carbonization process. It was found that the specific fingerprint at 2913,91 cm-1 and 2923,56 cm-1 for the carbon chain of activated carbon. Other physical and chemical properties were conducted to investigate moisture content, thermal property, yield enhancement, and formed product appearance.

In recent years, there has been increased world-wide concern over residual (carry-over) activity of mostly high temperature (HT) and very high temperature (VHT) stable amylases in white, refined sugars from refineries to various food and end-user industries. HT and VHT stable amylases were developed for much larger markets than the sugar industry with harsher processing conditions. There is an urgent need in the sugar industry to be able to remove or inactivate residual, active amylases either in factory or refinery streams or both. A survey of refineries that used amylase and had activated carbon systems for decolorizing, revealed they did not have any customer complaints for residual amylase. The use of high performance activated carbons to remove residual amylase activity was investigated using a Phadebas® method created for the sugar industry to measure residual amylase in syrups. Ability to remove residual amylase protein was dependent on the surface area of the powdered activated carbons as well as mixing (retention) time. The activated carbon also had the additional benefit of removing color and insoluble starch.
