【 摘 要 】

This paper discuss about the comparison of the functional groups and morphological surface of carbon that activated using H3PO4 and HNO3 as an activator. This study intends to compare the functional group and morphological surface of activated carbon with activator H3PO4 and HNO3 from oil palm fronds. The analysis was carried out included analysis of the morphological surface of activated carbon using SEM and FTIR analysis of activated carbon with the best characteristics. The results from the identification in this study, showed that the activated carbon comprised functional groups C-H, C = C, C = O, C-N, C-C, N = O and O-H, by using FTIR spectrophotometer.
