Charcoal obtained from cherry stones
The essentials
- Demand for materials like charcoal and activated carbon has led to exploitation of agro-industrial residues, including cherry stones
- Study describes methods used to prepare charcoal from cherry stones by subjecting them to final heating temperature of 600°C with or without an equal flow of nitrogen or air
- Isothermal time was set at 2 hours, providing adequate time to study carbonisation while varying the atmosphere
- Resulting charcoal had suitable characteristics as precursors of activated carbon; third sample prepared in different atmospheres was an activated carbon
- Yield in material carbonaceous was somewhat lower when applying nitrogen current and approximately 5% less when using air
- Authors studied how atmosphere during heat treatment affects CS in terms of yield, chemical composition, structure and pore structure
- Work highlights how agro-industrial residues can be utilized to produce valuable materials while also providing environmental benefits.
