Characterization and dye adsorption effectiveness of activated carbon synthesized from olive pomace

The olive pomace is produced as a result of oil production. Studies, about products obtained from agricultural wastes, have increased within the scope zero waste studies. In present study, activated carbon was synthesized using taken processing plant operating with three-phase process. characterization performed Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), Brunauer – Emmett Teller (BET), and X-Ray Crystallography (XRD) devices. Olive (OPAC) used for adsorption dye an aqueous solution. efficiency OPAC investigated. pH value solution (6-9), amount (0.5 1.0 g/L), initial concentration (600-1200 mg/L) were optimized. Also, kinetic isotherm calculations made. optimum parameters found original (pH=8), g/L 1000 mg/L. Langmuir model pseudo-second-order most suitable models.
