This book was released on 2015-01-06 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Natural gas is an attractive alternative for conventional fuels due to low price, being naturally abundant and less toxic gas emission. To develope the ANG thechnology, appropriate adsorbents with superior chractarestics and high storage capacities are required for development. Carbonaceous materials due to their appropriate properties have been evaluated for natural gas adsorption. With respect to the unique characteristics of carbon nanotubes, representation of appropriate gas storage properties by ANG method is an interesting projected area. In the first chapter, natural gas adsorption on different types of carbon nanotubes was investigated and compared to the adsorption data obtained by Granular activated carbons. Then, the effects of various chemical treatments on the performance of carbon nanotubes for natural gas adsorption were examined and discussed in the second chapter. Furthermore, sorption equilibria, kinetics and thermodynamic studies of adsorption processes were evaluated in this book.

Book excerpt: Adsorption by Carbons covers the most significant aspects of adsorption by carbons, attempting to fill the existing gap between the fields of adsorption and carbonaceous materials. Both basic and applied aspects are presented. The first section of the book introduces physical adsorption and carbonaceous materials, and is followed by a section concerning the fundamentals of adsorption by carbons. This leads to development of a series of theoretical concepts that serve as an introduction to the following section in which adsorption is mainly envisaged as a tool to characterize the porous texture and surface chemistry of carbons. Particular attention is paid to some novel nanocarbons, and the electrochemistry of adsorption by carbons is also addressed. Finally, several important technological applications of gas and liquid adsorption by carbons in areas such as environmental protection and energy storage constitute the last section of the book. The first book to address the interplay between carbonaceous materials and adsorption Includes important environmental applications, such as the removal of volatile organic compounds from polluted atmospheres Covers both gas-solid and liquid-solid adsorption

This book was released on 2020-06-27 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The deterioration of water quality and unavailability of drinkable water are pressing challenges worldwide. The removal of toxic organic and inorganic pollutants from water is vital for a clean environment, as a response to water scarcity. Adsorption-based water technologies are among the most widely used because of their high efficiency and low cost, without relying on a complex infrastructure. In recent years, carbon nanomaterials (CNMs), such as graphene and derivatives, carbon nanotubes, carbon nanofibers, nanoporous carbon, fullerenes, graphitic carbon nitride, and nanodiamonds have been extensively exploited as adsorbents due to their extraordinary surface properties, ease of modification, large surface area, controlled structural varieties, high chemical stability, porosity, low density, ease of regeneration, and reusability. This book provides a thorough overview of the state of the art in carbon nanomaterials as they are used for adsorption applications in water purifications, as well as addressing their toxicological challenges. This volume primarily explores the fundamentals of adsorption, its mechanical aspects, synthesis and properties of CNMs, and adsorption performances of CNMs and their nanocomposites with organic and inorganic materials. Structural engineering and activation processes produce materials with enhanced adsorptive properties and separation efficiencies. Furthermore, the formation of CNMs with 2D and 3D macro-and microstructures and high porosities is a potential approach to improve adsorption performances and extend CNM use at the industrial level. The book also addresses important issues regarding these adsorbents that potentially affect future research and industrial applications of carbon-based nanoadsorbents in water security. Presents advances in multifunctional 3D superstructures of carbon nanomaterials and their composites for adsorption applications Outlines the fundamentals on synthesis and characterization techniques of carbon-based nanostructures and their composites Assesses the major toxicological challenges in using nanostructured materials as adsorbents for water purification

This book was released on 2017-08-18 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rare gas adsorption was studied on suspended individual single walled carbon nanotubes and graphene. The devices were fabricated as field effect transistors. Adsorption of N2 and CO, which formed a Root 3 X Root 3 commensurate solid monolayer, produced a dramatic reduction of the two-terminal conductance of graphene by as much as a factor of three. This effect is possibly connected with the opening of a band gap expected to occur in such structures.

Book excerpt: This report is a brief summary of the results of studies conducted by faculty, students, and postdoctoral fellows at Pennsylvania State University (Department of Physics) and the University of Pittsburgh (Department of Chemical and Petroleum Engineering) on gas adsorption in carbon nanostructures. The principal research methods employed in these studies were analytical or numerical theory and computer simulation. In addition, successful collaborations with experimental scientists at these institutions and elsewhere took place. The research focused on the prediction of the thermodynamic properties of gases adsorbed on nanotubes. Studies also were conducted on the spectroscopic properties and momentum distribution of hydrogen. In most cases, experimental data on gas adsorption were consistent with the predictions. In some cases, especially in the case of hydrogen, the data were particularly dependent on material preparation and the kind of experimental study of adsorption that was performed. The authors have developed sophisticated models that improve upon conventional assumptions about carbon nanotubes' electronic properties and their effects on adsorption. They also have investigated the consequences of polydisperse tube size distribution and dilation of the tube lattice in a nanotube bundle on adsorption. The report contains bibliographic references to the 27 research publications that were completed by this group of investigators during the course of this contract with the Army Research Office.
