Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCharacterization of Activated Carbon from Eggshell Membranes Prepared Using Sodium Acetate and Zinc Metal ActivationSumrit Mopoung, Kanjana JitchaijaroenkulThe eggshell membranes of ducks and hens were carbonized or activated with 4 wt% sodium acetate or zinc at 400-600°C. The carbonized or activated products were characterized by SEM-EDS, TEM, FTIR and XRD. It was found that the suitable activation temperature for eggshell membranes is 500°C with 30.03-35.26% yield. The activation performance of CH3COONa for eggshell membrane activated carbon production … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 8 · 2 Aug 2017 · 8,525 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleWater Filter Fabrication from a Mixture of KMnO4 Modified Kapok Carbon Fiber, Zeolite, Bentonite and Clay for Fe3+Removal and Water Hardness TreatmentKannika Thongdee, Kalayaporn Parun, Suphakrit Benjatitmongkhon et al.A water filter was fabricated from a mixture of KMnO4 modified kapok carbon fiber, zeolite, bentonite and kaolinite clay for Fe3+ removal and water hardness treatment. The effects of amount of KMnO4 modified kapok carbon fiber (30-60 wt%), zeolite (20-40 wt%) and sintering temperature (500-700°C) on the properties of sintered products were evaluated. The best of sintered products were tested … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 6 · 15 Jun 2017 · 7,580 accessesView PDFCite
