Abstract:

In order to improve the adsorption efficiency of activated carbon fiber to colored wastewater, the activated carbon fibers with highly hollow structures were prepared, using the calotropis gigantea fiber as the precursor, by phosphoric acid activation and high temperature carbonization. The morphology, chemistry and pore structures of the calotropis gigantean activated carbon fiber were characterized systematically by scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive spectrometer, Fourier transform infrared spectrocopy methods. Meanwhile, the adsorption properties and mechanism of carbon fibers to methylene blue were analyzed. The results show that the average hollow degree of calotropis gigantea activated carbon fiber is more than 92%, and the fiber also exhibits a rough surface and develops mesoporous structures with the specific surface area and average pore diameter of 1 244.812 m 2/g and 3.744 nm, respectively. Moreover, the surface of carbon fiber is rich in elements O and P, which constitute the active surface of carbon fiber. The saturated adsorption capacity of the carbon fiber to methylene blue aqueous solution with initial mass concentration of 100 mg/L can reach 198.840 mg/g. The adsorption process to methylene blue follows the pseudo-second-order kinetic equation. The adsorption to methylene blue conforms to the Freundlich model, which is mainly multilayer adsorption.
