Abstract

Activated carbon is loaded with 2 totally different metals: Ce and iron. The catalyst was characterised by Brunauer Emmett Teller (BET) and Fourier rework Infrared (FTIR). The discharged conditioner had the best area and pore volume of 1100 m2/g and 0.3 cm3/g, respectively.AC/Ce/Fe achieved the best kerosene adsorption performance (75%) though the lowest surface area and pore volume of 965.7608 m2/g and 0.39 cm3/g due to the acidic sites required for adsorption of sulfur compounds. Batch experiments with AC/Ce/Fe showed a high adsorption capacity. These experiments were designed by Minitab Response Surface Methodology RSM 2019. The Analysis of variance ANOVA shows that the concentration of H2O2 has most significant effect on the sulfur removal followed by reaction time and temperature, respectively. The model optimization was set its parameters additives 10 ml H2O2, temperature 80 0C and time 5 hr.
