Zn METAL PROCESSING (II) SURVEY FROM ACTIVATED CARBON FROM K2CO3 IN COMBINATION WITH FE0

Abstract

Currently, the application of materials in water and wastewater treatment is increasingly focused, in which the use of by-products in industrial production, as a source of wastewater treatment materials is increasingly focused. Thereby, the application of macca coal for heavy metal treatment in the country was conducted a survey on the ability to process Zn(II) metal from activated carbon from K₂CO₃ in combination with Fe0. The survey results showed that the absorption of wastewater containing Zn(II) metals at optimal pH conditions = 4.5 with an appropriate dosage of 1.4 (g/L) in 80 minutes of performance reached 89.78 %. The results of the study showed that nano-activated carbon combined with nZVI additive ion Zn(II) in the country, through which research can be applied to the chemical process in water treatment and wastewater treatment techniques.
