Resumen
PAJARO-PAYARES, Adolfo A. et al. Effect of particle size and oxidant concentration in the yield of humic acids from mineral coal using response surface methodology. Rev. acad. colomb. cienc. exact. fis. nat. [online]. 2017, vol.41, n.160, pp.361-369. ISSN 0370-3908. https://doi.org/10.18257/raccefyn.477.
Humic acids are produced by decomposition of organic soil material and from oxidation of mineral coals. In this study, the effect of oxidation and the yield of humic acids extracted from a sample of Colombian mineral coal were studied by response surface methodology (RSM). The variables used were: particle size (0.063, 0.106 and 0.150 mm), concentration of the oxidizing agent (KMnO4: 0.010, 0.020 and 0.050 M) and oxidation time (30, 60 and 90 minutes). The degree of oxidation was verified by infrared spectroscopy. Oxidation increased oxygen groups in the carbonaceous matrix, mainly due to oxidation of aliphatic components. Extraction yields above 24% were obtained with 0.063 mm particle size and 0.020 M KMnO4. © 2017. Acad. Colomb. Cienc. Ex. Fis. Nat.
