Abstract

The production process in the gondorukem industry produces solid waste in the form of litter, twigs, and pine tree leaves. In this study, solid waste from the gondorukem industry was processed into activated carbon as an adsorbent to improve the color quality of the gondorukem. The workings of this research include carbonizing solid waste in a combustion tube until it becomes charcoal, then the charcoal is ground and sieved using a -16 + 28 mesh sieve. Furthermore, activation was carried out based on the type of activator, namely sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrochloric acid (HCl), with concentrations according to the independent variables, namely 0.3 M, 0.6 M, 0.9 M, 1.2 M, and 1.5 M for 24 hours. After that, assays were carried out on activated carbon samples which included; water content assay, ash content assay, and iodine number assay. The results of the best solid waste activated carbon using an hydrochloric acid (HCl) activator with a concentration of 0.3 M, which has been compared with SNI 06-3730-1995, produces 3% water content, 17% ash content, and 3046.32 mg/g iodine number. The result of the gondorukem color that has been treated and batch distilled produces a color value of 10.6, which is physically brownish red and still, does not meet gondorukem color standards.
