An analytical method of micropore filling of a supercritical gas

The supercritical gas adsorbed in the micropore having a strong molecular field was presumed to transform into the quasi-vapor to be filled in the micropore (quasi-vaporization adsorption mechanism). The Dubinin-Radushkevitch (DR) equation for micropore filling of vapor was extended to the quasi-vaporized supercritical gas using the quasi-saturated vapor pressureP _{0 q} and the inherent micropore volumeW _L . The reason why the concepts ofP _0q andW _L were introduced was explained with the molecule-pore interaction potential theory which is based on the Lennard-Jones interaction. The extended DR equation was named the supercritical DR equation. TheW _L was evaluated by the Langmuir plot of the adsorption isotherm for a supercritical gas and both ofP _0q andW _L provided the single reduced adsorption isotherms of supercritical NO, N₂, and CH₄ on activated carbon fibers and high surface area carbons were analyzed by the supercritical DR plots. The wide applicability of the reduced adsorption isotherm to these adsorption data was explicity shown. The two phase model of the organized and confined fluids was proposed in order to improve the quasi-vaporization adsorption mechanism.     

Fractal Dimensions of Coals and Cokes

Using adsorption data, we get formulas for the calculation of fractal dimensions: log[A_CO2(DP)/A_N2(BET)] = −5.3984(2 −D₁)/2 and log[A_CO2(BET)/A_N2(BET)] = −4.9569(2 −D₂)/2. The fractal dimensions (D) of 27 coals and 2 cokes have been obtained. TheDof coals decreased with the increase of f_aand reached a maximum at H/C equal to 0.66 (orC_dafabout 86%). The fractal dimension is relative to ash and volatiles of coal:D= 2.2237 + 0.6249V_daf+ 0.8863A_d. The relationship betweenDof coal coke and its conversions (X) obeys the following equation:D = aexp(−bX) +c.     

Influence of analysis conditions on low pressure adsorption measurements and its consequences in characterization of energetic and structural heterogeneity of microporous carbons

Nitrogen adsorption isotherms on nonporous and microporous carbons were thoroughly studied at low relative pressures. For nonporous carbons low pressure measurements seem to be unaffected by analysis conditions. However, these measurements on microporous solids may be affected by analysis conditions at relative pressures below 10^–4. It was shown that selection of proper equilibration time is crucial for correct measurements of equilibrium pressures during adsorption on microporous carbons. The isotherm shift induced by insufficient equilibration of the system may affect the surface heterogeneity and microporosity analysis. A comparison of the adsorption energy and pore volume distribution functions calculated from low pressure nitrogen adsorption isotherms measured at different equilibration times on a microporous carbon shows that this effect is smaller than it was expected.

Equation of State for Adsorption of Gases and Their Mixtures in Porous Materials

Desorption functions (G, H, S) are useful for adsorbent characterization, phase equilibria, and enthalpy and entropy balances. Adsorption isotherms, enthalpy, and entropy are temperature and pressure derivatives of the free energy, so that G(T, P) is an adsorption equation-of-state which contains complete thermodynamic information about the system. The free energy of desorption is the minimum isothermal work necessary to regenerate the adsorbent. The free energy of desorption also determines the selectivity of an adsorbent for different gases. The ideal enthalpy of desorption for a mixture (H = _i n _i h° _i ) is a simple function of the enthalpies of desorption for the individual components. Sample calculations of the free energy, enthalpy, and entropy desorption functions are provided for pure components and mixtures.

On the modeling of miscible flow in multi-component porous media

An analytical model of miscible flow in multi-component porous media is presented to demonstrate the influence of pore capacitance in extending diffusive tailing. Solute attenuation is represented naturally by accommodating diffusive and convective flux components in macropores amd micropores as elicited by the local solute concentration and velocity fields. A set of twin, coupled differential equations result from the Laplace transform and are solved simultaneously using a differential operator for one-dimensional flow geometry. The solutions in real space are achieved using numeric inversion. In addition, to represent more faithfully the dominant physical processes, this approach enables efficient and stable semi-analytical solution procedure of the coupled system that is significantly more complex than current capacitance type models. Parametric studies are completed to illustrate the ability of the model to represent sharp breakthrough and lengthy tailing, as well as investigating the form of the nested heterogeneity as a result of solute exchange between macropores and micropores. Data from a laboratory column experiment is examined using the present model and satisfactory agreement results.Roman Letters a rate coefficient of internal flow - b velocity ratio (v ₁/v ₂) - h dispersion ratio (D ₂/D ₁) - c ₁ macropore concentration - c ₂ micropore concentration - ¯c ₁ macropore concentration in Laplace space - ¯c ₂ micropore concentration in Laplace space - c ₁ ⁰ macropore concentration at source location - c ₂ ⁰ micropore concentration at source location - D ₁ macropore dispersion coefficient - D ₂ micropore dispersion coefficient - f fraction of pore space occupied by fluid in primary channel - L length of laboratory sample column - K mass exchange rate - t time from initial stage - v ₁ primary flow channel velocity - v ₂ micropore interstitial velocity - x distance from source - y dimensionless distance Greek Letters equivalent Péclet number - dimensionless time, or injected pore volume     

Fabrication of Porous Nitrogen‐Doped Carbon Materials as Anodes for High‐Performance Lithium Ion Batteries

The hierarchical porous nitrogen‐doped carbon materials (HNCs) were prepared by using nitrogen containing gelatin as the carbon source and nano‐silica obtained by a simple flame synthesis approach as the template. All of the as‐obtained HNCs show much higher Li storage capacity as compared with commercial graphite. Specifically, HNC‐700 with biggest micropore volume and highest nitrogen content exhibited optimal reversible capacities of 1084 mAh·g^??1 at the current density of 37.2 mA·g^?1 (0.1 C) and 309 mAh·g^?1 even at 3.72 A·g^?1 (10 C). This result suggests that HNCs should be a promising candidate for anode materials in high‐rate lithium ion batteries (LIBs).
