Abstract

Preparation and characterization of adsorbent from oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB) activated with KOH has been done. Adsorbent was made from carbonated at 100 °C of oil palm empty fruit bunches and activated by using potassium hydroxide (KOH). The experimental design used was a randomized block design (RBD) which was arranged factorial with 1 (one) factor. The variations in the carbonization temperature of this study were 100 °C, 350 °C, 500 °C, 650 °C and 850 °C. The physico-chemical characteristics of activated OPEFB were evaluated by using Brunauer-Emmet-Teller (BET) surface area, surface morphology using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrometer. The best result was obtained in the carbonation treatment at 650 °C. The adsorbent surface area of activated OPEFB is 0.302 m2/g, the FTIR showed that most of the peaks of functional groups disappeared. The results of the SEM analysis showed that the OPEFB sample micrograph had an irregular shape.
