A Comparison Study of Carbonized Kapok Fibres Treated by Sodium Hydroxide Solution and Hydrochloric Acid Solution as an Absorbent in Removing Oil Waste

A Comparison Study of Carbonized Kapok Fibres Treated by Sodium Hydroxide Solution and Hydrochloric Acid Solution as an Absorbent in Removing Oil Waste

Hydrophobic-oleophilic properties of Kapok (Ceiba pentandra) fibre enables it to show good oil absorption capacity. In this study, Kapok fibre was treated with two types of solvent which is Hydrochloric acid solution (HCl) and Sodium Hydroxide solution (NaOH). Both solutions function to remove ligni...
