用活性炭纤维同时脱除二氧化碳中COS与H_2S的研究

采用固定床动态吸附实验考察了用NaOH、KOH、Na2CO3、K2CO3和Fe3+、CO2+等对活性炭纤维(ACF)进行改性,并分别对其脱除氧硫化碳(COS)和硫化氢(H2S)的性能进行了测试。重点是以N2和CO2为稀释气,对改性离子的种类、含量、反应气氛和反应温度等的脱硫性能进行研究,还考察了在COS和H2S同时存在的情况下,ACF脱除COS和H2S的性能。结果表明,碱改性ACF比空白ACF脱除效果好,金属离子改性ACF与碱改性ACF相比可以有效地提高活性炭纤维的硫容量。其中,用CO2+改性ACF能同时提高脱除COS和H2S的效果。     

脱除低浓度硫化氢的改性活性炭纤维的再生研究

用改性的活性炭纤维（ACF）脱除低浓度的H2S是一种十分有效的方法,但脱硫后的改性ACF容易达到脱硫饱和而失活。用溶剂再生和气体热再生的方法可以对失活后的改性ACF进行再生。在固定床反应器上考察了再生后ACF的脱硫性能。实验结果表明,与溶剂再生相比,气体热再生是更有效的再生方法。不同再生方法的效果的不同,是由ACF脱除H2S的反应机理的不同和再生机理的不同造成的。     

Adsorption of Carbon Dioxide on Activated Carbon

The adsorption of CO2 on a raw activated carbon A and three modified activated carbon samples B, C, and D at temperatures ranging from 303 to 333 K and the thermodynamics of adsorption have been investigated using a vacuum adsorption apparatus in order to obtain more information about the effect of CO2 on removal of organic sulfur-containing compounds in industrial gases. The active ingredients impregnated in the carbon samples show significant influence on the adsorption for CO2 and its volumes adsorbed on modified carbon samples B, C, and D are all larger than that on the raw carbon sample A. On the other hand, the physical parameters such as surface area, pore volume, and micropore volume of carbon samples show no influence on the adsorbed amount of CO2. The Dubinin-Radushkevich (D-R) equation was the best model for fitting the adsorption data on carbon samples A and B, while the Preundlich equation was the best fit for the adsorption on carbon samples C and D. The isosteric heats of adsorption on carbon samples A, B, C, and D derived from the adsorption isotherms using the Clapeyron equation decreased slightly increasing surface loading. The heat of adsorption lay between 10.5 and 28.4 kJ/mol, with the carbon sample D having the highest value at all surface coverages that were studied. The observed entropy change associated with the adsorption for the carbon samples A, B, and C (above the surface coverage of 7 ml/g) was lower than the theoretical value for mobile adsorption. However, it was higher than the theoretical value for mobile adsorption but lower than the theoretical value for localized adsorption for carbon sample D.     

Antibiotic Removal from the Aquatic Environment with Activated Carbon Produced from Pumpkin Seeds

Antibiotics are among the most critical environmental pollutant drug groups. Adsorption is one of the methods used to eliminate these pollutants. In this study, activated carbon was produced from pumpkin seed shells and subsequently modified with KOH. The adsorbent obtained through this procedure was used to remove ciprofloxacin from aqueous systems. Fourier Transform-Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), elemental, X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) and Zeta analyses were used to characterize the adsorbent. The surface area, in particular, was found to be a very remarkable value of 2730 m²/g. The conditions of the adsorption experiments were optimized based on interaction time, adsorbent amount, pH and temperature. Over 99% success was achieved in removal operations carried out under the most optimal conditions, with an absorption capacity of 884.9 mg·g⁻¹. In addition, the Langmuir isotherm was determined to be the most suitable model for the adsorption interaction.     

Performance and Characterization of Bi-Metal Compound on Activated Carbon for Hydrogen Sulfide Removal in Biogas

This study reports on the synthesis of bi-metal compound (BMC) adsorbents based on commercial coconut activated carbon (CAC), surface-modified with metal acetate (ZnAc₂), metal oxide (ZnO), and the basic compounds potassium hydroxide (KOH) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH). The adsorbents were then characterized by scanning electron microscopy and elemental analysis, microporosity analysis through Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) analysis, and thermal stability via thermogravimetric analysis. Adsorption–desorption test was conducted to determine the adsorption capacity of H₂S via 1 L adsorber and 1000 ppm H₂S balanced 49.95% for N₂ and CO₂. Characterization results revealed that the impregnated solution homogeneously covered the adsorbent surface, morphology, and properties. The adsorption test result reveals that the ZnAc₂/ZnO/CAC_B had a higher H₂S breakthrough adsorption capacity and performed at larger than 90% capability compared with a single modified adsorbent (ZnAc₂/CAC). Therefore, the synthesized BMC adsorbents have a high H₂S loading, and the abundance and low cost of CAC may lead to favorable adsorbents in H₂S captured.     

活性炭脱除低浓度二氧化硫的研究进展

用活性炭脱除低浓度的二氧化硫是一种经济有效的方法,文章综述了近年来国内外在此方面的研究进展。归纳了反应机理,总结了活性炭的孔道结构、表面化学环境、改性剂、原料气的湿度、温度和原料气的组分对反应的影响,以及失活后的活性炭的再生方法,并对这种脱硫方法的应用前景进行了探讨。     

无氧下低浓度硫化氢在浸渍活性炭上的吸附研究

为了考察常温、无氧下浸渍Na2CO3改性、原料气相对湿度对活性炭吸附硫化氢的促进作用,用动态吸附法分别测试了不同湿度下原活性炭和浸渍活性炭对低浓度硫化氢的吸附,同时考察了温度对该吸附过程的影响。结果表明,吸附平衡数据均符合Freundlich吸附等温方程。与原活性炭相比,浸渍活性炭的孔容和比表面积略有降低,但对硫化氢的吸附能力却显著提高,说明硫化氢与浸渍剂在活性炭表面上发生了化学反应。相对湿度增加,活性炭和浸渍活性炭对H2S的吸附能力均显著增强。温度升高,平衡吸附量均略有下降。     

硫化氢对活性炭脱除单质汞的影响

H₂S是煤气中的含硫成分,活性炭能否催化氧化煤气中的H₂S形成活性硫,以促进H₂S和Hg⁰的协同脱除是值得研究的。 本文首先通过程序升温脱附和热力学分析了低温情况下H₂S对活性炭脱除Hg⁰的影响。 在较低吸附温度130 ℃下,H₂S不仅不能作为硫源,还使活性炭对Hg⁰的吸附显著减弱,这主要是由于H₂S对活性炭表面的吸附氧的消耗以及H₂S对含氧官能团的氧的取代反应造成的。 在此基础上,进一步研究了高温下H₂S对活性炭的影响,高温也不能使活性炭有效渗入单质硫。 所以无论低温还是高温情况下,利用H₂S作为硫源使Hg⁰以HgS的形式脱除并不是活性炭脱汞的可行手段。 本文揭示了较宽的温度范围内H₂S对单纯的活性炭脱除Hg⁰的影响机理,能为用于煤气脱汞的活性炭的设计以及作为负载时机理研究提供支持作用。     

Physical Adsorption of H2S Related to the Conservation of Works of Art: The Role of the Pore Structure at Low Relative Pressure

The adsorption isotherms of H₂S in selected adsorbents were determined at 298 K, at relative pressures up to about 0.005, aiming the use of these materials in the removal of that pollutant from the museums atmosphere. The Dubinin-Astakhov equation adjusts very well the experimental results, although one cannot interpret the pre-exponential factor w₀ as the limiting adsorbed amount. The parameter E, related with the adsorption energy, and the parameter n, that can be associated with the surface heterogeneity of the adsorbents, are correlated and the first is also correlated with the adsorbed amounts. It was not found any expectable relationship between the adsorbed amounts and textural parameters of the adsorbents such as the specific surface area or the microporous volume. This points out that the adsorption of H₂S is highly specific. In general, 13X and Y sodium zeolites seem to be the most effective adsorbents, but at lowest tested pressures, near the concentrations found at museums, a pillared clay prepared from a Wyoming montmorillonite seems to be more efficient.     

Removal of Cyanide from Aqueous Solutions by Adsorption on Activated Carbon Prepared from Lignocellulosic By-products

Cyanide is considered one of the most dangerous compounds for the environment. They are discharged by various industries: chemical and metallurgical processes (extraction of gold and silver) and food industries. Adsorption is among the most used processes for elimination of cyanides particularly for the low concentrations. In this work, the cyanide removal is carried out by adsorption onto activated carbons prepared from olive stones and coffee ground. So we can promote this by-product as an inexpensive adsorbent. The prepared activated carbons are characterized by scanning electron micrograph and by determination of the physicochemical properties and specific surface area. All the adsorption experiments were performed in batch mode on synthetic water cyanide (KCN) at pH 10.8–11.0 to avoid volatilization of very toxic HCN. To describe the adsorption kinetics, the kinetic models of pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order, and intra-particle diffusion were applied. The experimental equilibrium data for adsorption of free cyanide were analyzed by the Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin isotherm models.     

Single and Mixed Gas Adsorption Equilibria of Carbon Dioxide/Methane on Activated Carbon

Single gas adsorption isotherms of methane and carbon dioxide on micro-porous Norit RB1 activated carbon were determined in a gravimetric analyser in the temperature range of 292 to 349 K and pressures to 0.8 Mpa. Furthermore binary isotherms of carbon dioxide and methane mixtures were determined at 292 K and pressures up to 0.65 MPa. Adsorbed phase compositions were determined from the gravimetric data by the rigorous thermodynamic method of Van Ness.These experimental binary equilibrium data were compared with equilibrium data calculated by the Ideal Adsorbed Solution (IAS) model. Only moderate agreement could be obtained.Finally, activity coefficients, accounting for the non-ideality of the adsorbate mixture, were calculated from the experimental data. The Wilson equation, derived for bulk solutions, was fitted on these activity data and the Wilson interaction parameters were determined. The Wilson equation proved to correlate the experimental data reasonably. However, the Wilson interaction parameters are not only completely different from those found for bulk solutions, but also the physical interpretation of these parameter values is completely lacking.It is concluded that new solution models should be developed encompassing both non-ideal solution behaviour and surface heterogeneity.     

Use of Quantitative Structure Activity Relationship Methods in Predicting Activated Carbon Adsorption Isotherms for Hazardous Air Pollutants

Abstract

A quantitative structure activity relationship (QSAR) approach is presented to predict gas phase activated carbon adsorption capacities and isotherms for several organic chemicals and their binary mixtures. F,x peri menial adsorption data reported in the literature for various binary mixtures on two di ercnt carbons were used to validate this predictive approach. The QSAR-predicted and experimental adsorption capacities for di erent chemical mixtures of small apolar hydrocarbons at di erent temperatures on two di erent carbons under a range of total pressures and gas phase compositions agreed well with r₂ = 0.85 for a total of 338 data points.     

Comparison of Adsorption Capacity of p-Cresol & p-Nitrophenol by Activated Carbon in Single and Double Solute

Adsorption of p-Cresol and p-Nitrophenol by untreated activated carbon in single and multisolute solutions was carried out at 301 K and at controlled pH conditions. In acidic conditions, well below the pK _a of both solutes, it was observed that the adsorbate solubility and the electron density of aromatic rings influenced the extent of adsorption by affecting the extent of London dispersion forces. The fitted parameters obtained from single-solute Langmuir equation show that Q _max and the adsorption affinity of carbon for the compound with low pK _a decrease more significantly. In higher solution pH conditions, on the other hand, it was found that electrostatic forces played a significant role on the extent of adsorption. The presence of another compound decreases Q _max and the adsorption affinity of carbon for the principal compound. The effect of pH, on the carbon surface and on the solute molecules, must be considered. Adsorption of the solute at higher pH values was found to be dependent on the concentration of anionic form of the solute. The isotherm data were fitted to the Langmuir isotherm equation for both single and double solute solutions.     

Sorption and Textural Properties of Activated Carbon Derived from Charred Beech Wood

The aim of this study was to prepare activated carbon materials with different porous structures. For this purpose, the biomass precursor, beech wood, was carbonized in an inert atmosphere, and the obtained charcoal was physically activated using carbon dioxide at 1273 K. Different porous structures were obtained by controlling the time of the activation process. Prepared materials were characterized in terms of textural (N₂ sorption at 77 K), structural (XRD), and sorption properties (CO₂, C₂H₄, C₄H₁₀). The shortest activation time resulted in a mostly microporous structure, which provided a high sorption of CO₂. Increasing the activation time led to an increasing of the pores’ diameters. Therefore, the highest ethene uptake was obtained for the material with an intermediate activation time, while the highest butane uptake was obtained for the material with the highest activation time.     

Carbon Dioxide Capture and Use: Organic Synthesis Using Carbon Dioxide from Exhaust Gas

A carbon capture and use (CCU) strategy was applied to organic synthesis. Carbon dioxide (CO₂) captured directly from exhaust gas was used for organic transformations as efficiently as hyper‐pure CO₂ gas from a commercial source, even for highly air‐ and moisture‐sensitive reactions. The CO₂ capturing aqueous ethanolamine solution could be recycled continuously without any diminished reaction efficiency.

采用了溶剂再生法和气体再生法对脱硫化氢失活后的活性炭进行再生,溶剂再生时所用的溶剂为H2O2溶液、HNO3溶液以及NaOH溶液。结果表明,NaOH溶液不能使活性炭得到再生,而H2O2溶液、HNO3溶液能够通过氧化的方法使活性炭得到再生。气体再生时所用的气体分别为高纯N2,含20%O2的N2,H2,它们再生的原理分别是热再生,通过氧化单质硫再生和通过还原单质硫再生。再生效果最好的是30%的HNO3溶液和H2,它们能将活性炭孔道内的单质硫分别脱出69.8%和81.2%,再生后的活性炭中硫容量能达到原来的70%以上。再生后活性炭的比表面积和pH值是再生性能的两个重要指标。

Adsorption of p-Nitrophenol in Untreated and Treated Activated Carbon

The adsorption of p-nitrophenol in one untreated activated carbon (F100) and three treated activated carbons (H₂, H₂SO₄ and Urea treated F100) was carried out at undissociated and dissociated conditions.To characterize the carbon, N₂ and CO₂ adsorption were used. X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) was used to analyze the surface of the activated carbon.The experimental isotherms are fitted via the Langmuir homogenous model and Langmuir binary model. Variation of the model parameters with the solution pH is studied. Both Q _max and the adsorption affinity coefficient (K ₁) were dependent on the PZC of the carbons and solution pH. The Effect of pH must be considered due to its combined effects on the carbon surface and on the solute molecules. Adsorption of p-nitrophenol at higher pH was found to be dependent on the concentration of the anionic form of the solute.
