Abstract
Activated carbons were prepared from the pyrolysis of waste melamine coated chipboard at 600 and 800°C by chemical activation with NaOH. The effects of the carbonization temperature and concentration of chemical reagent on their chemical-surface properties were investigated. The highest surface area was obtained at 600°C with the 50 wt. % concentration of sodium hydroxide. The external surfaces of the activated carbons showed amorphous and heterogeneous structures.
期刊介绍:
Cessation. Ekoloji is an international journal that focuses on papers that report results from original research on all disciplines engaged in the field of environmental research. We welcome articles that cover the entire spectrum of environmental problems and environmental pollutants, whether chemical, biological or physical. Its coverage extends to all environmentally related issues: air and water pollution, solid waste, noise, recycling, natural resources, ecology and environmental protection. It includes articles on basic and applied environmental pollution research, including environmental engineering and environmental health. All types of pollution are covered, including atmospheric pollutants, detergents, fertilizers, industrial effluents, metals, mining wastes, oil, pesticides, plastics, radioactive materials and sewage. It also includes research papers on ecological and environmental issues such as climate change, biodiversity. The primary criteria for publication are scientific quality and ecological/environmental significance.
The journal will be read and contributed to by biologists, applied ecologists, environmental scientists, natural resource specialists, environmental engineers, environmental health specialists, agro-ecologists, veterinaries, agricultural engineers, landscape planners and designers. The journal welcomes full "research papers" and short "research notes", only in the English language.
