Electrophysical Properties and Heat Capacity of Shale from the Kendyrlyk Deposit

In this work, the chemical analysis of the initial and activated shale from the Kendyrlyk deposit of Kazakhstan is described. The activated shale was obtained in the high-temperature processes of carbonization and activation in the atmospheres of argon and water vapor, respectively. The electrophysical characteristics of the test shale were determined for first time by measuring the electrocapacity of samples in a temperature range of 293–483 K. The temperature dependences of the specific heat of shale were obtained by dynamic calorimetry. Based on the experimental data, equations for the temperature dependence of the heat capacity of shale were derived; these equations can be subsequently used for determining the thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of shale.

Study on synthesis of low surface area activated carbons using multi-step activation for use in electric double layer capacitor

Low surface area activated carbon derived from compact mesocarbon microbeads (MCMB2010) was synthesized using a lower amount of KOH (1:1 weight ratio of KOH to MCMB) than normally used followed by electrochemical activation. The specific capacitance of the activated carbon heat treated at between 650 and 900 °C was increased up to ca. 118 F/cc (half cell base, 750 °C-heat treated sample) after electrochemical activation, even with a low surface area carbon (<50 m²/g). The morphology of low surface area activated MCMB determined by FE-SEM showed a smooth carbon surface without pores. The charge/discharge profiles were similar to those of conventional activated carbon. The specific capacitance of the activated samples increased with increasing heat treatment up to 850 °C after electrochemical activation. However, it was lower for the sample heat treated at 900 °C.

Effect of precursor composition on the activation of pitchbased carbon fibers

Pure and silver-containing carbon fibers were prepared from isotropic pitch precursors supplied by Conoco, Inc., and a Korean research team and activated in carbon dioxide to varying degrees of burn-off. The specific activation rates for the carbon fibers were measured as well as the nitrogen adsorption characteristics of the activated carbon fibers. Scanning electron microscopy was used to investigate the surface morphology and the behavior of silver particles during the activation process. Molecular composition of the two pitch precursors was determined using a gas chromatograph mass spectrometer and a MALDI TOF mass spectrometer. Results showed that specific surface area increased with the burn-off, and the trends were similar for the pure and silver-containing fibers formed from both isotropic pitch precursors. However, the catalytic behavior of silver during activation, the activation rate, and even the pore characteristics of the activated fiber were found to be dependent on the molecular composition of the precursor pitch.

Preparation of activated carbon from olive mill solid residue

A process was developed for producing high quality activated carbon from Algerian mill waste. The solid olive mill residue was carbonized at 800 °C and physically activated with CO₂, air or steam. An optimum activation temperature of about 850 °C was determined for all the activation agents used. Steam appeared to be the most efficient activator as compared with air and CO₂. An optimal activation time of about 2 h was then determined with steam as the optimum activation agent. The porous structure of the activated carbon was characterized by nitrogen adsorption at −196 °C, and in all cases the surface areas, calculated by DR and BET methods, confirmed the production of a material with good microstructural characteristics and specific surfaces exceeding 1500 m² g⁻¹ for the carbon prepared by steam activation. Phenol adsorption isotherms gave the adsorption properties and the adsorption capacity of about 11.24 mg of phenol per gram of the activated carbon produced. The kinetics of the phenol adsorption onto the porous material was evaluated by means of two models: the external resistance model and the linear model. The second model appeared to constitute a more appropriate fit for the experimental data. © 2000 Society of Chemical Industry     

Role of active sites in the steam activation of high unburned carbon fly ashes

Previous studies on carbon gasification have not included high unburned carbon content fly ashes, and therefore it remains unclear why not all fly ash carbon samples are equally suitable for activation. The concentration of active sites is well known to influence carbon gasification reactions. Therefore, the objective of this work was to investigate the effect of the concentration of active sites on the behavior of fly ash carbon samples upon steam activation. Six fly ash carbons were selected to produce activated carbons using steam at 850 °C. The concentration of active sites was determined by non-dispersive infrared analysis (NDIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). XRD analyses were also conducted to determine the crystallite size. It was observed that the concentration of active sites played a more significant effect on the surface areas of activated carbons in the carbon burn-off zone of >60%. Statistical analysis was used to relate the surface areas of activated carbon variances with carbon burn-off levels.     

Coniferous Wood Sawdust-based Activated Carbons as Adsorbents Obtained with the Use of Microwave Radiation

Activated carbons were prepared by physical and direct activation of sawdust pellets coming from coniferous trees, with the use of microwave radiation. The activated carbons obtained were used as adsorbents for the removal of methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solutions. Liquid-phase adsorption experiments were conducted and the maximum adsorption capacity of each activated carbon sample was determined. The effects of activation procedure as well as adsorption tests parameters i.e., temperature, pH, initial methylene blue concentration, and contact time on the sorption capacity of each activated carbon were investigated. The kinetic models for MB adsorption on the activated carbons were also studied. Better fit to the experimental data was obtained with the Langmuir isotherm than Freundlich one, for all samples.     

Conversion of polyacrylonitrile fibers to activated carbon fibers: Effect of activation

Polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-based activated carbon fibers were developed with the idea of increasing their potential and efficiency in industrial applications. The PAN-based fibers were first oxidized in air in a continuous multistage stabilization process, and then subjected to a continuous, low temperature carbonization and activation treatment in a mixture of steam and argon. The effect of the activation condition on the specific surface area, elemental composition, as well as the morphological structure of activated carbon fibers was studied. The surface area of the carbon fibers increased remarkably after the steam activation. It was found that steam activation promoted the elimination of nitrogen from the fiber. The bulk oxygen content of the fibers increased upon activation, probably due to formation of carbon-oxygen functionalities on the surface of the activated carbon fibers. The surface oxygen level of activated carbon fibers was greater than the bulk analysis of oxygen. It was observed that activation decayed the order of the carbon structure. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Vanadium(V) Removal by Adsorption onto Activated Carbon Derived from Starch Industry Waste Sludge

This study examines the adsorption potential of activated carbons for vanadium (V) removal from aqueous solution. Activated carbons were produced via chemical activation of waste treatment sludge from the starch industry. Specific surface area and pore sizes of waste sludge samples were determined through chemical activation and pyrolysis. Experimental data indicated that sludge samples had micropore structure and specific surface area of up to 1196 m²/g. First-order and second-order models were applied to determine adsorption kinetics. Freundlich, Langmuir, and Dubinin–Radushkevich isotherms were used to analyze equilibrium data of adsorption. Equilibrium adsorption data showed the best fit to the Freundlich isotherm. Adsorption of vanadium (V) follows second-order kinetic models. Maximum adsorption was observed at pH 4.0. Langmuir adsorption capacity was found to be 37.17 mg/g. The results of the study indicated that activated carbon obtained from industrial sewage sludge was effective in removing vanadium from aqueous solutions, which creates a significant advantage for treatment of industrial wastewaters and management of solid wastes.
