The process for producing activated carbon from peat was optimized. The peat was impregnated with different ratios of ZnCl2, and the impregnated biomass was activated at different temperatures. The specific surface area, pore size distribution, total carbon content, and yield of the activated carbon were investigated. The best results for the specific surface area and mesoporosity of the activated peat were obtained by using a high impregnation ratio (2) and high activation temperature (1073 K). Highly porous activated carbon was produced that had a specific surface area of approximately 1000 m2/g and total pore volume that was higher than 0.5 cm3/g for most samples. The activated carbon had a high degree of mesoporosity. The adsorptive properties of the activated carbon were determined with methylene blue and orange II dyes.

Comparison of the Properties of Activated Carbons Produced in One-Stage and Two-Stage Processes
Bergna, Davide; Varila, Toni; Romar, Henrik; Lassi, Ulla (MDPI AG, 2018)Activated carbons (ACs) can be produced from biomass in a thermal process either in a direct carbonization-activation process or by first carbonizing the biomass and later activating the bio-chars into activated carbons. ... -
Applicability of hybrid aspen (Populus tremula L. × P. tremuloides Michx.) bark extract as a precursor of rigid carbon foam and activated carbon
Korkalo, Pasi; Varila, Toni; Brännström, Hanna; Hellström, Jarkko; Jyske, Tuula; Lassi, Ulla (Elsevier, 2023)Hybrid aspens have long attracted scientific interest, but the research on their use as feedstocks for chemical applications are still very limited. The bark biomass of the poplar species contains many valuable extractives ... -
Characterization of Cobalt Catalysts on Biomass-Derived Carbon Supports
Lahti, Riikka; Bergna, Davide; Romar, Henrik; Hu, Tao; Comazzi, Alberto; Pirola, Carlo; Bianchi, Claudia L.; Lassi, Ulla (Springer, 2017)Cobalt catalysts are known to have a high activity and selectivity in the Fischer–Tropsch reaction converting synthesis gas to higher hydrocarbons (C5+). These catalysts have been supported by different porous materials. ... -
Activated Cashew Carbon-Manganese Oxide Based Electrodes for Supercapacitor Applications
Boamah, Rebecca; Agyei-Tuffour, Benjamin; Dodoo-Arhin, David; Nyankson, Emmanuel; Brobbey, Kofi J.; Obada, David; Mohammed, Latifatu (Elsevier BV, 2023)The current global energy challenge which affects most developing countries in particular, is of major source of concern today. The availability of less expensive techniques of storing excess generated energy is critical ... -
Lignin-based activated carbon-supported metal oxide catalysts in lactic acid production from glucose
Kupila, Riikka; Lappalainen, Katja; Hu, Tao; Romar, Henrik; Lassi, Ulla (Elsevier, 2021)In this study, heterogeneous biomass-based activated carbon-supported metal oxide catalysts were prepared and tested for lactic acid production from glucose in aqueous solution. Activated carbons were produced from hydrolysis ...
