Abstract

Bu çalışmada, mısır püskülü ve koçanı kalıntılarından iki aşamalı piroliz ve Ca(OH)2 aktive edici proses ile elde edilen son derece gözenekli aktif karbon (MPK-AK) geliştirilmesi ve daha sonra sudan tetrasiklin (TSL) ve parasetamolü (PST) uzaklaştırmak için uygulanması amaçlanmıştır. Kimyasal aktivasyon için optimum koşullar 700 °C ve Ca(OH)2 / mısır atıkları ağırlıkça (3/1; w/w) olmuştur. MPK-AK adsorbanı (adsorpsiyondan önce ve sonra) Fourier dönüşümlü kızılötesi spektroskopisi (FTIR) ve Brunauer-Emmet-Teller (BET) analizi ile karakterize edilmiştir. MPK-AK adsorbanının tekrar kullanılabilirlik çalışmaları adsorpsiyon-desorpsiyon döngüleri 3 kez tekrar edilerek değerlendirilmiştir. BET analiz sonuçlarından sentezlenen MPK-AK adsorbanının toplam gözenek hacmi (2.013 cm3/g), ortalama gözenek çapı (2.963 nm), özgül yüzey alanı (2358 m2/g) ile mezogözenekli yapıya sahip olduğu görülmüştür. Adsorpsiyon izoterm ve kinetik çalışmaları kesikli adsorpsiyon toplu deneyleri yapılarak belirlenmiştir. MPK-AK’ın maksimum adsorpsiyon kapasitesi TSL ve PST için sırasıyla 1250 mg/g ve 588 mg/g olarak hesaplanmış ve fiziksel adsorpsiyon olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır. Termodinamik sonuçlar TSL adsorpsiyonunun endotermik PST adsorpsiyonunun ise ekzotermik bir işlem olduğunu göstermiştir.

Adsorption of tetracycline and paracetamol using activated carbon derived from Ca(OH)2-treated corn waste

Abstract

The aim of this study was to develop a highly porous activated carbon (MPK-AC) from corn tassel and cob residues using a two-stage pyrolysis process with Ca(OH)2 as the activating agent and to investigate its application for the adsorption of tetracycline (TSL) and paracetamol (PST) from water. The optimal conditions for chemical activation were determined to be a temperature of 700 °C and a Ca(OH)₂-to-corn waste ratio of 3:1 (w/w). The MPK-AC adsorbent, both before and after adsorption, was characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area analysis. Reusability of the MPK-AC was evaluated through three consecutive adsorption–desorption cycles. BET analysis revealed that the synthesized MPK-AC exhibited a mesoporous structure with a total pore volume of 2.013 cm³/g, an average pore diameter of 2.963 nm, and a specific surface area of 2358 m²/g. Adsorption isotherms and kinetic behaviors were investigated through batch adsorption experiments. The maximum adsorption capacities of MPK-AC were calculated as 1250 mg/g for TSL and 588 mg/g for PST, indicating a physical adsorption mechanism. Thermodynamic results indicated that the adsorption of TSL was an endothermic process, whereas the adsorption of PST was exothermic.
