English Abstract

In this research, a highly porous sodium bicarbonate activated carbon was produced by the fast pyrolysis of Chlorella pyrenoidosa biomass. The biochar without modification showed non-porous material characteristics based on the results of N 2 isotherm adsorption- desorption. The modification with sodium bicarbonate successfully increased the BET specific surface area of biochar to 1282 m 2 /g, with a microporous surface area of 871 m 2 /g and an external surface area of 411 m 2 /g. This result was obtained at a temperature of 750°C. XRD characterization showed broad peak around 24° which indicates amorphous carbon structure that is favorable for adsorption purposes. FTIR characterization after pyrolysis showed an important functional group that should enhance the adsorption process. Following that, a batch adsorption technique of lead synthetic wastewater is used to conduct more tests on its performance. The maximum adsorption capacity of Lead (Pb 2+ ) based on Langmuir model of activated carbon (q max ) is 159.071 ± 23.4008 mg/g. The heterogeneity factor (hf) based on Freundlich model is 0.4671 ± 0.06394, which mainly indicates the physical adsorption. The separation factor (R L ) is nearly zero, indicating irreversible nature. The pseudo second order kinetic model showed that the rate of adsorption (k 2 ) for activated carbon is 0.00931 ± 0.00222 g.mg -1 min -1 . Overall, the results demonstrated that in terms of technological feasibility, activated carbon from Chlorella pyrenoidosa met the standards of commercial activated carbon, either based on characterization data or performance results.
