Abstract

Methylene blue is one of the dyes in the textile industry which has a negative impact on the
environment. This compound is very stable, so it is difficult to degrade naturally. Methylene
blue can be harmful to the environment if it is in a very large concentration, because it can
increase the value of Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) which can damage the balance of
environment ecosystem. Adsorption method by using activated carbon as the adsorbent is
one of the most efficient and effective techniques in dye removal due to its large adsorption
capacity. However, the adsorption method using activated carbon only removes the pollutant
compounds to other media or phases. Other method that can be used includes Advanced
Oxidation Processes (AOPs). This method has the advantage of being able to degrade
harmful compounds in the waste through oxidation (oxidative degradation) processes. One
method of AOPs is the process by using Fenton reagents. This study was aimed to prepare
and characterize iron oxide/porous activated carbon catalyst. The type of porous activated
carbon used was carbon from biomass derived carbon with microporous character. This
biomass carbon is obtained from renewable natural products, namely coconut shell.The
kinetics and adsorption models in the material will be derived and evaluated from the
research data. Based on the research, it can be concluded that catalytic degradation is very
effective for degradation of dye wastewater. Methylene blue degradation increases with the
use of Fe2O3/activated carbon catalyst and the addition of hydrogen peroxide as the Fenton
reagent. In addition, the pore structure difference in the catalyst also had a significant effect
on the methylene blue degradation reaction resulting in increased capacity of methylene blue
degradation reactions.
