| Abstract: | This study presents optimal conditions for
preparation of durian peel based activated carbon (DPAC) for removal of
ammoniacal nitrogen (NH3-N) from semi-aerobic landfill leachate.
DPAC was prepared using chemical activation method which consisted of
phosphoric acid (H3PO4) treatment and nitrogen
gasification. Optimum conditions for DPAC preparation (activation temperature,
400 °C; activation time, 2.27 h; and IR, 3) resulted in DPAC yield (21.02%) of
and NH3-N removal (46.49%). |
