The percentage of KOH affects the quality of activated carbon. In this research the activated carbon has been made of biomass from rice husk by using the process carbonization, chemical activation using Potassium Hydroxide variated percentage for 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% from the mass of sample and microwave irradiation power by 450 Watt. The surface morphology of activated carbon for the sample KA10 produced the even pores structure and lots of pores more than sample KA5, KA15 and KA20. The analysis results of surface morphology of activated also supported by analysis atomic adsorption spectroscopy (AAS) show that sample KA10 has the highest heavy metal adsorption 92,40% for Ni, 91,31% for Pb and 70,24% for Zn.

The power of microwave irradiation affect the quality of activated carbon. In this research the activated carbon has been made of biomass of corn cob by using carbonization process, chemical activation using potassium hydroxide as the activating agent and microwave irradiation power was variated for 360 watt, 450 watt, 630 watt, dan 720 watt in 15 minutes. The surface morphology of activated carbon for the sample KA720 produced lots of pores more than that of the sample KA360, KA450, and KA630. The sea water that has been mixed with activaed carbon using microwave irradiation power of 720 watt with temperatur of 26oC, and pH of 7,41.

Activated carbon can be prepared from any kind of hydrocarbon-based material, and that from agricultural wastes is attractive for many reasons. The use of natural fiber in various industries gives rise to some associated waste streams. In this work, activated carbon, produced from the non-fibrous material waste from pineapple leaf fiber production, was studied for its heavy metal adsorption behavior. The material was carbonized at different temperatures and chemical activation was carried out using phosphoric acid. Pore size and pore volume of the adsorbent were determined using the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) method, and surface morphology by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrophotometry (FT-IR) was used to identify the functional groups in the material. It was found that the surface area, pore volume and morphology of the surface depended on the carbonization temperature. The best adsorbent was obtained using a carbonization temperature of 500 °C and an activation temperature of 600 °C. Adsorptions of several heavy metals were studied over the concentration range of 4 - 800 mg L−1 and pH 2-10. The optimum amount of the adsorbent was found to be 1.20 g per 100 ml of solution, removing up to 92.67% of lead ions. The adsorption behaviour was closer to the Freundlich isotherm than to the Langmuir isotherm. So this waste could be a useful bio-source for activated carbon production.

This paper presents the utilization of bamboo residue from the chopstick industry as modified carbon (AC) for supercapacitor application.  Bamboo activated carbon (BAC) was activated using Potassium hydroxide (KOH) and assisted with microwave ultrasonic (Mw-U) irradiation to enhance the properties of bamboo activated carbon (BAC). Different microwave (Mw) power intensities of 100 W, 300 W, and 500 W at 30 minutes of retention time have been applied on activation and the carbonization process was conducted at temperature 800°C. The BAC was analyzed for the morphology using a scanning electron microscope and proximate and ultimate analysis. Then BAC with the higher surface area was subjected to the electrochemical analysis to determine the electrochemical properties. The study indicated Mw-U irradiation improved the morphology of the BAC, eliminated the impurity of the sample, and gave higher carbon content of BAC. The findings show that lower Mw-U irradiation power provided a higher surface area of BAC. The surface area of 646.87 m2/g and total pore volume of 2.8x10-1 cm3/g was obtained with a power intensity of Mw-U activation at 100 W. While, electrochemical properties, the specific capacitance (Cs) of BAC was 77 Fg-1 at 25 mVs-1 in 1 mol/L KOH of electrolyte for cyclic voltammetry (CV) which indicates the ability of the prepared BAC to be used as an electrode in supercapacitor application. This study determined that Mw-U irradiation can improve the properties of the bamboo during chemical activation and formed BAC that consists of supercapacitor properties.

This study aims to determine the influence of concentration of potassium hydroxide (KOH) on the adsorption of Pb2+ and Cu2+ metal ions in industrial used water. The activated carbon was prepared from pineapple crown waste. Pineapple crown was pre-carbonized at 180oC for 1 hours. Chemical activation was done using KOH with variations in concentrations of 2, 3, and 4 M. The samples were irradiated by using a microwave at 630 Watt of output power for 15 minutes. KOH activation and microwave irradiation power were influenced to the physical properties of the samples. Activated carbon obtained were characterized using SEM, EDX, FTIR and AAS. The results showed that highest adsorption were obtained from activated carbon that was activated by KOH 2 M. Adsorption efficiency for Pb2+ and Cu2+ metals were 81.15% and 49.71%, respectively. The carbon chain structure shows the functional groups C-H, C≡C, O-H, C=C at wavenumber 2889.49 cm-1, 2360.97 cm-1, 2339.97 cm-1.
