摘要: Abstract Hollow carbon nanofibers (HCNFs) were found to have formed during microwave pyrolysis of palm kernel shell (PKS) at 500 and 600 °C. The formation HCNFs was only observed not the fixed-bed pyrolysis, indicating that played a key role in HCNFs. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis bio-chars showed typical diffractions 2θ = 26.3° 43.2°, good graphitic structure HCNFs, especially for prepared High resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) results revealed multiwall nature with layer spacing 0.34 nm. Two major tubular bamboo-shape structures With increasing temperature from 600 °C, yield increased 5.85 wt.% 9.88 wt.%. Raman spectroscopy I D / G ratio decreased 0.95 0.86, higher order layers Energy dispersive (EDS) presence Fe, K, Ca which may catalytic their growth. Mechanism growth under irradiation proposed discussed. HCNFs-coated bio-char has great potential removal heavy metals waste water.
