Abstract

Sidoarjo mudflow is a disaster that causes huge loss for more than six years. In order to find its application earlier study showed that after calcined at various temperatures and leached in HCl and NaOH solution, the mud can be used as adsorbent materials. The results reveal that only samples activated in acid condition have potential for being used as adsorbent. The BET isotherm curve obtained are categorized as type IV indicating the mud can be classified as mesoporous materials with pore diameter of 2 nm and surface area between 32 and 116.953 m2/g depending on the calcination temperatures. These are in line with fly ash being used as CO adsorbent, whose BET isotherm curve and surface area are similar to Porong Sidoarjo mud. It is known that fly ash can be used as adsorbent for reducing carbon monoxide's (CO) emissions of vehicles with maximum absorption efficiency 19.78%.
