ABSTRACT Textile sludge waste contains many organic matters so that it is potential to be used as mesoporous carbon precursor. Actived carbon with mesopore character is effective as adsorbentand catalyst carrier of large molecules. Synthesis of the activated mesoporous carbon was done with purpose to study influence of activation temperature toward chalC}ctersof the carbon. Process of the synthesis involved dry sludge (50 g) as precursor, concentrated sodium silicate solution Si02 24.5% and Na20 7.5% (50 mL) as template source, 1 M HCI solution (50 mL) as polimering agent, carbonization condition at 600 DC3 h under nitrogen.gas flow, activation conditions with NaOH 50% and various temperatures(400, 500, 600, 700, and 800 DC),and demineralizatin conditions with 0.1 M HCI solution for 4 hand 125rpm. All of the products were characterizedwith methylen blue method to detennine specific pore volumeand specific surface area. The carbon obtained at optimum temperature was characterizedagain with surface area analyzer. Result of the research showed that the optimum condition was achieved at activation temperatureof 500 DC.Characters of the synthesizedcarbon at the optimum condition were specific surface area of 638.32 m2/g,specific pore volume of 0.35 cm3/g,averagepore diameter of 21.78 A. and methylene blue number of 358.87 mg/g.
