The Efficiency of Diatomite in Absorbing Gasoline

ประสิทธิภาพของไดอะตอมไมต์ในการดูดซับน้ำมันเบนซิน

Abstract

          The objective of this research was to study the efficiency of diatomite. by temperature The size of the diatomite, the amount and the optimum time for the gasoline adsorption. The experiments were performed using diatomite sizes of 4.75, 3.35, 2.36, 2.00, 0.85, 0.425, 0.30 and 0.18 mm with various weight of 5, 10 and 15 g. The sintering temperature was 100, 300, 600 and 900 °C. The absorption time was 30, 60 and 90 min. The sintering temperature was 100, 300, 600 and 900 °C. The results showed that the amount of ditomite at 15 g, 2.00 mm size, 900 °C sintering temperature, and 90 min absorption time, had the highest gasoline absorption efficiency of 95.50%.
