Description
Summary:The purpose of this thesis was to determine the comparative strength of commercial activated carbon using of 'Strength Testing Kit Model KH98002' taken from industrial sample. The strength of AC were determine based on KuHalim Method and presented in term of broken percentage or original size percentage. Bestde that, porosity of AC were determine using iodine number and methylene blue number. There were six samples has been tested. From the result that obtained, we had found that the sample 2 had greater strength in the experiment. The original size percentage for sample 2 was 86.13%. The htghest todine number and methylene blue decolourising power for sample 5, 267, and sample 3, 14.97ml/g respectively. This previous work can assist in handling and monitoring the testing kit properly for the following thesis.
