Abstract

Pineapple crown leaf was successfully converted to the magnetized activated carbon (MAC) as an attractive solution to overcome separation problems. The activated carbon (AC) was produced by an innovative method combining KOH activation and microwave heating while the magnetization process was prepared by a co-pre- cipitation method. In this sense, the activation stage was studied at different impregnation ratio. The resulted magnetic adsorbent was further tested its feasibility for methyl violet dye removal. The result shows that MAC consists of both micropores and mesopores with more oxygen-containing functional groups, indicating it can be used to remove dye from contaminated water. The increase of impregnation ratio led to an increase in the MAC porosity and a decrease in the magnetic property. The adsorption behavior of methyl violet dye onto MAC was well described by the Redlich-Peterson isotherm model.
