Production of Biochar from Sugarcane Bagasse using a One-Stage Pyrolysis Method for Crystal Violet Adsorption in Aqueous Environment
Main Article Content
Abstract
Biochars were prepared by anaerobic heating of sugarcane bagasse at different temperatures of 400 °C, 500 °C, 600 °C, and 700 °C for 3 hours. The biochar samples, denoted as biochar-400 oC, biochar-500 oC, biochar-600 oC, and biochar-700 oC, were used to adsorb crystal violet dye in an aqueous medium. Physico-chemical methods such as XRD, FTIR, BET, and SEM were used to evaluate the synthesized biochar materials. The concentration of crystal violet solutions was determined using UV-Vis spectroscopy at the maximum absorption wavelength of 590 nm. The results showed that the biochar samples had good adsorption capacity for crystal violet dye, with the maximum adsorption capacity of biochar-400 oC, biochar-500 oC, biochar-600 oC, and biochar-700 oC being 154.6, 160.8, 182.8, and 168.6 mg/g, respectively. The biochar-600 oC sample has the highest adsorption capacity, consistent with its physico-chemical properties such as the highest porosity and specific surface area. Therefore, the cheap and simple prepared biochar has great potential to be used as an adsorbent material to remove crystal violet dye in an aqueous environment.
