ABSTRACT
Many human activities generate solid wastes. Large quantities are produced by agriculture and mining, and these wastes generally have big impact on the majority of environment. One of the waste produced by agriculture is rubber seed shell. Rubber seed shell waste consume some spaces in disposal area and a study has been carried out to investigate the application of rubber seed shell as activated carbon that can be use as adsorbent in waste water process.
The solid waste of rubber seed shells can be reuse to produce activated carbon as adsorbent in wastewater treatment. By using Zinc Chloride as activating agent, a few factors of characteristics is studied.
This further study will be done to discover the factor that affecting the adsorption process to be applied in wastewater treatment. Those factors are activation time, activation temperature and size of activated carbon produced. The study is carried out to control the waste produced that gives impact to the environment as well as to reduce the pollution in waste water treatment. |
