Abstract EN
Large amounts of Chinese herbal medicine wastes produced by the medicinal factories have been mainly landfilled as waste.
In this study, via phosphoric acid activation, a Chinese herbal medicine waste from Magnolia officinalis (CHMW-MO) was prepared for activated carbon (CHMW-MO-AC).
The effect of preparation conditions (phosphoric acid/CHMW-MO impregnation ratio, activation temperature, and time) of activated carbon on yield of CHMW-MO-AC was investigated.
The surface area and porous texture of the CHMW-MO-ACs were characterized by nitrogen adsorption at 77 K.
The SBET and pore volume were achieved in their highest value of 920 m2/g and 0.703 cm3/g, respectively.
Thermal gravity analysis and scanning electron microscope images showed that CHMW-MO-ACs have a high thermal resistance and pore development.
The results indicated that CHMW-MO is a good precursor material for preparing activated carbon, and CHMW-MO-AC with well-developed mesopore volume can be prepared by H3PO4 activation.
