Abstract

This
study examines the characterization and adsorption features of silver that was
added to oxygen containing activated carbons using the sol-gel method. The
surface area of the silver coated activated carbon (AC/Ag) Nano-composites,
which were prepared using the sol-gel method, was measured with the
Braunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area calculation method according to N2
adsorption at 77 K. The microstructure and surface morphologies of the AC/Ag
Nano-composite samples were examined with the use of Scanning Electron
Microscope. Methylene Blue removal was performed with AC/Ag-1 with 658.488 m²/g,
which had the highest surface area, and the Qmax value was calculated as 416.
66 mg/g.
