Abstract | : | ABSTRACT Bamboo has great potential to be used as industrial raw materials due to its fast growing and high mechanical properties. Utilization of bamboo for chopsticks manufacturing industry remained abundant of waste which is not yet properly ultilized. The main purpose of this study is to convert those bamboo waste material to Activated Charcoal. The raw material used in this study was Ampel bamboo waste (Bambusa vulgaris Schrad. Ex J.C. Wendl.) obtained from the chopsticks manufacturing factory CV. Jaya Abadi, Tasikmalaya, west Java, Indonesia. Activation process is carried out by heating the charcoal with temperature variations of 850?C, 900?C, and 950?C respectively. In addition to temperature the activation period used in this study were 30 minutes, 60 minutes, and 90 minutes respectively. Quality parameters evaluated in this study were moisture content, volatile matter content, ash content, fixed carbon content, absorption of benzene, absorption of iodine, and absorption of methylene blue. The result showed that ampel bamboo waste can be used as a good raw material for activated charcoal. Ampel bamboo activated charcoal produced meets the SNI 06-3730-95 quality standard for the essential parameters. The best activated charcoal is obtained from the activation process of 90 minutes with temperature of 900?C. |
