Characteristic of Different Precursor Size of Activated Carbon Produced From Oil Palm Shell in Adsorption of LPG

The effects of material precursor selections in the quality of activated carbon produced from oii palm shell, an abundant palm-oil miil solid waste, were studied. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Fourier Transform Infra Red spectroscopy was used to analyze the micropore and surface condition o...
