Biomass carbon black morphology structural study

Sivabalan S., . and H.P.S. Abdul Khalil, . and Ahmad Z.A., . (2008) Biomass carbon black morphology structural study. [Proceedings Paper]

Carbon from biomass which is abundant waste from agriculture activities in Malaysia. Specifically the characterization of biomass from bamboo Gigantochloa scoretechinii oil palm shells and empty fruit bunches are precursor of carbon black. Carbons are well known as active materials for energy storage and conversion. Moreover carbon materials have high electrical conductivity low cost high surface area porosity formability and possess good chemical and electrochemical resistivity. Thermal regeneration by pyrolysis temperature on biomass to produce carbon black and activated carbon through controlled atomphere is studied. Carbon black is a form of amorphous carbon that has an extremely high surface area to volume ratio and as such it is one of the first nanomaterials to find common use. Physical properties studies including recovery particle size distribution percentage of moisture content percentage composition of carbon hydrogen nitrogen content FT-IR and SEM micrographs were studies. Bamboo showed highest properties as a precursor of carbon black rather than bagasse. However the performance of carbon black bagasse is unpredictable and can challenge the bamboo properties. FT-IR analysis proved the adsorption of several major group or compound of both precursor particles. SEM analysis micrograph displayed the evidence of microstructure surface area both of carbon black bamboo and bagasse sample through pyrolysis. EDX analysis showed that the elements such as carbon magnesium potassium oxygen and silica existed in both samples. Bamboo has higher porosity than bagasse make bamboo more suitable in production of carbon black.

Abstract

Carbon from biomass which is abundant waste from agriculture activities in Malaysia. Specifically the characterization of biomass from bamboo Gigantochloa scoretechinii oil palm shells and empty fruit bunches are precursor of carbon black. Carbons are well known as active materials for energy storage and conversion. Moreover carbon materials have high electrical conductivity low cost high surface area porosity formability and possess good chemical and electrochemical resistivity. Thermal regeneration by pyrolysis temperature on biomass to produce carbon black and activated carbon through controlled atomphere is studied. Carbon black is a form of amorphous carbon that has an extremely high surface area to volume ratio and as such it is one of the first nanomaterials to find common use. Physical properties studies including recovery particle size distribution percentage of moisture content percentage composition of carbon hydrogen nitrogen content FT-IR and SEM micrographs were studies. Bamboo showed highest properties as a precursor of carbon black rather than bagasse. However the performance of carbon black bagasse is unpredictable and can challenge the bamboo properties. FT-IR analysis proved the adsorption of several major group or compound of both precursor particles. SEM analysis micrograph displayed the evidence of microstructure surface area both of carbon black bamboo and bagasse sample through pyrolysis. EDX analysis showed that the elements such as carbon magnesium potassium oxygen and silica existed in both samples. Bamboo has higher porosity than bagasse make bamboo more suitable in production of carbon black.
