OIL SPILL SORPTION USING CARBONIZED PITH BAGASSE. APPLICATION OF CARBONIZED PITH BAGASSE AS LOOSE FIBER

摘要: Recent oil tanker accidents in the sea are very serious, not only since they pollute environment but also because release heavy oil. The preparation of activated carbon from agricultural waste increases economic return and reduces pollution. On carbonized fibers, sorption capacity for different kind oils was determined. Fibers extracted bagasse at 300◦C 2 hr were found to have a high performance sorption, recovery recycling oils, even viscous ones. Sorption showed strong dependence on weight sorbent film thickness. Their excellent as can be used six cycles until reach 50% 1 st cycle. Comparison between prepared fiber commercial has been done that could sufficient more than used.
