Abstract
Preliminary study of activated carbon from water chestnut (Eleocharis dulcis) has been done. The water chestnut plants, which were taken from Barito Kuala regency, South Kalimantan, were carbonized at 400 °C. The carbonized time were varied in 1 and 2 hours. Then the carbons were activated by KOH and H2SO4 solutions. The activated time were also varied in 1 and 2 hours. The physical-chemical properties of water chestnut charcoal, such as water content, ash content, volatile and fixed carbon values, before and after activated, were characterized. The results showed that the water content, ash content, volatile and fixed carbon values of activated carbon were in the range of 5.63-12.17%; 10.95-17.22%, 41.78-56.18% and 34.66-45.05%, respectively.
