Download or read book Analysis of the Pore Structure of Activated Carbons Produced from Paper Mill Sludge Using Small Angle Neutron Scattering Data written by and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A novel, cost-effective, and environmentally benign process was developed to produce highly efficient carbon-based adsorbents (CBAs) from paper mill sludge. The production process required chemical activation of sludge using zinc chloride and pyrolysis at 750 C in N2 gas. The produced CBAs were characterized according to their surface area and pore size distribution using N2-BET adsorption isotherm data. Further characterization of the surface and pore structure was conducted using a unified exponential/power law approach applied to small angle neutron scattering (SANS) data. The structural features analyzed by SANS revealed the dependence of porosity with zinc chloride concentration. The presence of inaccessible pores was also determined by contrast-match experiments.

This book was released on 2012-02-29 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present book discusses the principal lignocellulosic precursors used in the elaboration of activated carbons in different countries such as Asia, America, Europe and Africa; the different methods and experimental conditions employed in the synthesis of activated carbons, including one analysis of the principal stages of the preparation such as carbonization and activation (i.e., chemical or physical activation). Also, the recent and more specialized techniques used in the characterization of activated carbons are discussed in this book. For example, the techniques employed to determine textural parameters (mercury porosimetry and gas adsorption isotherms at 77 K) and different spectroscopies to determine chemical functionality (Raman, FT-IR, etc.) and other X-Ray techniques. Additionally, an overview of the application of activated carbons obtained from lignocellulosic precursors for wastewater treatment. Specifically, the analysis and discussion are focused on the advantages and capabilities of activated carbons for the removal of relevant toxic compounds and pollutants from water such as heavy metals, dyes, phenol, etc. Finally, the use of pyrolysis method for the valorization of two Mexican typical agricultural wastes (orange peel and pecan nut shell) for energy and carbon production is considered in this book.

Download or read book Effects of Activated Carbon Characteristics on Organic Contaminant Removal written by Detlef R. U. Knappe and published by IWA Publishing. This book was released on 2004-01-01 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many water treatment plants need to remove objectionable trace organic compounds, and activated carbon adsorption is often the best available technology. Utilities face the challenge of having to choose from a large variety of activated carbons, and iodine number or BET surface area values are often utilized in the selection process. Although neither parameter correlates well with adsorption capacities, alternative activated carbon selection criteria based on fundamental adsorbent and adsorbate properties are lacking to date. The first objective of this research was to systematically evaluate the effects of activated carbon pore structure and surface chemistry on the adsorption of two common drinking water contaminants: the relatively polar fuel oxygenate methyl tertiary-butyl ether (MTBE) and the relatively nonpolar solvent trichloroethene (TCE). The second objective was to develop simple descriptors of activated carbon characteristics that facilitate the selection of suitable adsorbents for the removal of organic contaminants from drinking water.Originally published by AwwaRF for its subscribers in 2003 This publication can also be purchased and downloaded via Pay Per View on Water Intelligence Online - click on the Pay Per View icon below

Download or read book Deposition of Zinc in Activated Carbon from Anthracite and Palm oil Shell Activated by Zinc Chloride written by and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research was the study of deposition of zine in the process of preparation of activated carbon from anthracite and palm-oil shell by zine chloride activation in a fixed bed reactor. The palm-oil shell was cabonized at 400 °C for 1 hr. Then, the chars and anthracite were soaked in zinc chloride solution before activation. The studied variables were temperature, time, palm-oil shell char particle size and concentration of zine chloride. The optimum condition for activation was 1.18-2.36 mm of palm-oil shell char and anthracite for the particle size of 0.80-0.90 mm, at 800°C for 3hr, 40% concentration of zine chloride. The prepared activated carbon from anthracite gave yield of 30.13%, bulk density of 0.5879 g/cm3 , iodine number of 860.35 mg/g, methylene blue number of 583.03 mg/g, B.E.T. surface area of 1026.99 m2 /g and 0.20% deposition of zinc. For the prepared activated carbon from palm-oil shell obtained yield of 33.83%, bulk density of 0.5063 g/cm3 , iodine number of 1069.10 mg/g, methylene blue number of 600.25 mg/g, B.E.T. surface area of 1099.10 m2 /g and 0.20% deposition of zinc. This activated carbon prepared from two types of raw material, could be used in commercial (iodine adsorption at least 600 mg/g) and food grade industry, because it has very low concentration of zine in product which is acceptable.
