AB - Potassium hydroxide activated carbons were prepared from Egyptian petroleum cokes with different KOH/coke ratios and
at different activation temperatures and times. The textural properties were determined by adsorption of nitrogen at −196oC.
The adsorption of iodine and methylene blue was also investigated at 30oC. The surface area and the non-micropore volume
increased whereas the micropore volume decreased with the increase of the ratio KOH/coke. Also the surface area and
porosity increased with the rise of activation temperature from 500 to 800oC. Textural parameter considerably increased with
the increase of activation time from 1 to 3 h. Further increasing of activation time from 3 to 4 h was associated with a less
pronounced increase in textural parameters. The adsorption of iodine shows the same trend of surface area and porosity
change exhibited by nitrogen adsorption, with KOH/coke ratio and temperature of activation. Adsorption of methylene blue
follows pseudo-first-order kinetics and its equilibrium adsorption follows Langmuir and D-R models.
