Abstract

The Xanthoceras sorbifolia shell activated carbon which was prepared by using zinc chloride as activating agent has a strong adsorption performance of cationic adsorbate (methylene blue) 845.275mg/g and anionic adsorbate (iodine) 1584.96mg/g. Specific surface area study showed that: the adsorption isotherms of activated carbonsamples are type I isotherm adsorption, BET specific surface area was 1455.233m2/g. Displayed by pore specific surface analyzer's measurement results that the pore radius ratio of activated carbon in the range of 3.2-3.4Å is the largest. This proves that these holes are mainly micropores. Meanwhile, the conclusions obtained by the SEM further proof.
