Three microporous activated carbons supplied by Norit® (of peat and bituminous coal origin) were used in this study as hydrogen sulfide adsorbents. Their surface properties were evaluated by means of nitrogen adsorption, Boehm titration, potentiometric titration, and thermal analysis. The results show that the carbons significantly differ in their pore structure and surface chemistry. This is reflected in their hydrogen sulfide breakthrough capacity. The breakthrough capacity is underestimated when not enough water is adsorbed on the carbon surface. The performance follows the expectations after extensive humidification of the sorbents’ surfaces. Moderately low pH in the acidic range of coal-based carbon, Vapure 612, promotes the oxidation of H2S to sulfur oxides which is important from the point of view of water regeneration. The high pH of peat-based carbon, RB 4, results in H2S oxidation to elemental sulfur. 相似文献

Nitrogen-doped porous carbons (NPCs) with high hydrogen sulfide (H2S) adsorption capacity have been prepared through the molten-salt approach, using d-glucose as carbon source, melamine as nitrogen source and eutectic salt (LiCl/KCl) as porogen. The NPCs possess tunable nitrogen content (3.07–24.31 wt.%) and specific surface area (451–1190 m2/g) with the changing of the weight ratio of nitrogen source to carbon source and synthesis temperature. The H2S adsorptive performance of NPCs is highly superior to that of non-doped porous carbon. X-rays photoelectron spectroscopy analyses combined with quantum chemical calculations demonstrate that the adsorption performance of the as-prepared NPCs depends on their nitrogen content and N-bonding configurations in the carbon materials, as well as their porosity. Pyridinic nitrogen doped carbon in NPCs have stronger interaction with H2S compared to pyrrolic and graphitic nitrogen doped carbon. Based on the advantages of the developed porosity and abundant nitrogen functional groups, the saturated sorption capacities of 0.97–1.25 mmol H2S/g can be achieved over NPCs at 25 °C under dry and anaerobic conditions. 相似文献

Sulfurization of a carbon surface for vapor phase mercury removal - II: Sulfur forms and mercury uptake 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Sulfur forms deposited on carbonaceous surfaces after exposure to hydrogen sulfide were analyzed using XPS and XANES. Higher temperatures promote the formation of organic sulfur and the presence of H2S during the cooling process increased elemental sulfur content. Temperatures between 400-600 °C were found to be optimal for producing effective mercury uptake sorbents. The increased amount of sulfur deposited during the cooling process in the presence of H2S was very effective towards Hg uptake in nitrogen. Correlation of mercury uptake capacity and the content of each sulfur form indicated that elemental sulfur, thiophene, and sulfate are likely responsible for mercury uptake, with elemental sulfur species being the most effective. 相似文献

A thermodynamic analysis of the possible reactions between hydrogen sulfide and concentrated sulfuric acid shows that four reactions are feasible. However, only two of these reactions apparently occur in experiments at 1 atm and 0°C to 150°C. Hydrogen sulfide is first oxidized by molecular sulfuric acid, forming SO2, sulfur and water, and then the H2S may react with the dissolved product, SO2, to generate sulfur and water. The stoichiometry of the consecutive reactions and their dependence on acid concentration were determined experimentally using mass balance measurements. The results of this study suggest a possible alternative method for sulfur removal and recovery that has more advantages. 相似文献

The extent of irreversible deactivation of Pt towards hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) due to sulfur adsorption and subsequent electrochemical oxidation is quantified in a functional polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cell. At 70 °C, sequential hydrogen sulfide (H2S) exposure and electrochemical oxidation experiments indicate that as much as 6% of total Pt sites are deactivated per monolayer sulfur adsorption at open-circuit potential of a PEM fuel cell followed by its removal. The extent of such deactivation is much higher when the electrode is exposed to H2S while the fuel cell is operating at a finite load, and is dependent on the local overpotential as well as the duration of exposure. Regardless of this deactivation, the H2/O2 polarization curves obtained on post-recovery electrodes do not show performance losses suggesting that such performance curves alone cannot be used to assess the extent of recovery due to sulfur poisoning. A concise mechanism for the adsorption and electro-oxidation of H2S on Pt anode is presented. H2S dissociatively adsorbs onto Pt as two different sulfur species and at intermediate oxidation potentials, undergoes electro-oxidation to sulfur and then to sulfur dioxide. This mechanism is validated by charge balances between hydrogen desorption and sulfur electro-oxidation on Pt. The ignition potential for sulfur oxidation decreases with increase in temperature, which coupled with faster electro-oxidation kinetics result in the easier removal of adsorbed sulfur at higher temperatures. Furthermore, the adsorption potential is found to influence sulfur coverage of an electrode exposed to H2S. As an implication, the local potential of a PEM fuel cell anode exposed to H2S contaminated fuel should be kept below the equilibrium potential for sulfur oxidation to prevent irreversible loss of Pt sites. 相似文献

In this work, hydrogen peroxide reactions, i.e. H2O2 decomposition and oxidation of organics in aqueous medium, were studied in the presence of activated carbon. It was observed that the carbon pre-treatment with H2 at 300, 500, 700 and 800 °C resulted in an increase in activity for both reactions. The carbons were characterized by BET nitrogen adsorption, thermogravimetric analyses (TG), temperature programmed reduction (TPR), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), iodometric titration and determination of the acid/basic sites. TPR experiments showed that activated carbon reacts with H2 at temperatures higher than 400 °C. The treatment produces a slight increase in the surface area. EPR analyses indicate the absence of unpaired electrons in the carbon. Iodometric titrations and TG analyses suggested that the treatment with H2 generates reduction sites in the carbon structure, with concentration of approximately 0.33, 0.53, 0.59, 0.65 and 0.60 mmol/g for carbons treated at 25, 300, 500, 700 and 800 °C, respectively. It was also observed the appearance of basic sites which might be related to the reduction sites. It is proposed that these reducing sites in the carbon can activate H2O2 to generate HO* radicals which can lead to two competitive reactions, i.e. the hydrogen peroxide decomposition or the oxidation of organics in water. 相似文献

Sulfurization of carbon surface for vapor phase mercury removal - I: Effect of temperature and sulfurization protocol 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The uptake of hydrogen sulfide by carbon materials (ACFs and BPL) under dry and anoxic conditions was tested using a fixed bed reactor system to determine the effects of sorbent properties, temperature (200-800 °C) and sulfurization protocols on the sulfur content, sulfur stability, sulfur distribution, and to elucidate possible reaction mechanisms for the formation of sulfur species. Sorbents with higher surface areas showed higher uptake capacity, indicating that active sites for sulfur bonding are formed during the formation of the pore structure. The sulfur content and stability generally increased with the increase in temperature due to a shift in the reaction mechanism. The sulfurization process is associated with the decomposition of surface functionalities, which creates active sites for sulfur bonding. The presence of H2S during the cooling process increased the sulfur content by increasing the presence of less stable sulfur forms. Sulfurized sorbents produced at high temperatures have pore structure similar to that of the virgin carbons. 相似文献

Activated carbons with metal containing bentonite binders as adsorbents of hydrogen sulfide 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Danh Nguyen-Thanh 《Carbon》2005,43(2):359-367
Wood-based activated carbon was ground and mixed with 10% bentonite binders containing either iron, zinc or copper cations adsorbed within the interlayer space and/or on the external surface of bentonite flakes. To better understand the role of transition metals, carbon was also impregnated with iron, zinc and copper salts. The structure of materials after modification was determined using nitrogen adsorption. The modification resulted in a decrease in porosity, especially in micropore volume, as a result of combined mass dilution effect and adsorption/re-adsorption of metals in small pores. Introduction of bentonite binders containing adsorbed metal increased the capacity of carbon for hydrogen sulfide only in the case of material containing copper. Copper also significantly increases the performance of carbon as an H2S adsorbent when impregnation is applied whereas the effects of other metals used in this study are much less pronounced. It is likely that copper present in the small pores acts as a catalyst for oxygen activation causing hydrogen sulfide oxidation. As a result of this process, elemental sulfur is formed which, when present in small pores, is oxidized to weakly adsorbed SO2. The SO2 is removed from the surface when continuous reaction with hydrogen sulfide occurs. Thus, even though binding carbon with spent bentonites after copper adsorption increases the capacity of carbon toward H2S removal, the formation of SO2, another undesirable pollutant, does detract somewhat from the procedure. 相似文献

The use of ozone and hydrogen peroxide for the simultaneous oxidation of nitrogen and sulfur oxides was studied in experiments carried out in a stirred cell. It was found that in a gas mixture, containing both nitrogen and sulfur oxides, only the nitrogen oxides are oxidized by ozone. Contrary to earlier results, sulfur dioxide does not disturb the oxidation of nitrogen oxides under dry conditions. The consumption of ozone in the oxidation of nitric oxide was slightly below the stoichiometric level because the ozone was introduced into the reactor in the oxygen flow. When the molar ratio between ozone and nitric oxide was more than 0.4, some of the nitric oxide was oxidized to higher oxides of nitrogen, the final product being a solid mixture of N2O5 and (NO)2S2O7. Some nitrosyl sulfuric acid was formed in the aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide in addition to sulfuric acid under wet conditions. Some white solid was found on the walls of the reactor. This solid is said it the literature to consist of H2SO4, HNOSO4 and (NO)2S2O7. 相似文献

Abstract As-received commercial activated carbons do not adsorb noticeable amounts of water vapor at lower relative vapor pressures (r.v.p.). Following surface oxidation with nitric acid, moisture sorption capacity at lower r.v.p. increases 100-fold. Exchange of surface H+ ions of oxidized carbons by metal cations (Li, Na, K, Ca) brings about a further substantial increase in moisture sorption capacity. At lower r.v.p., water uptake on some of the cation exchanged samples is comparable to that on commercial zeolite molecular sieves. Following an adsorption run, moisture sorption capacity of ion-exchanged carbons can be fully restored upon outgassing at 140°C. This is in sharp contrast to the zeolite sieves which need to be heated to above 350°C to be completely regenerated. 相似文献

Activated carbons were developed from Casurina equisetifolia leaves, by chemically treating with sulfuric acid (1:1) or zinc chloride (25%), at low (425 °C) and high (825 °C) temperatures. The resulting powdered activated carbons were applied for removing mercuric ions from aqueous solution at different agitation times and mercuric ion concentrations. The equilibrium data fitted well the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The Langmuir adsorption capacities were 12.3 and 20.3 mg g−1 for low temperature carbons and 43.9 and 38.5 mg g−1 for high temperature carbons impregnated with H2SO4 and ZnCl2, respectively. Studies of the effects of carbon dosage, NaCl concentrations and solution pH values were carried out for the more effective, high temperature carbons. Increasing NaCl concentration resulted in a significant decrease in the adsorption efficiency. Adsorption was high from solutions with low and neutral pH values and lower for solutions with alkaline pH values for the high temperature carbons. 相似文献

Alkyl and aryl sulfides are oxidized to the corresponding sulfoxides or sulfones in excellent yields with aqueous hydrogen peroxide in the presence of silica sulfuric acid as an efficient solid acid catalyst. The oxidation of alkyl and aryl sulfide proceeds at 25–90°C and the corresponding sulfoxides or sulfones was selectively obtained by controlling the amounts of H2O2 and catalyst. 相似文献

Wood origin activated carbon was oxidized and then treated with melamine and urea followed by carbonization at 950 °C in an inert atmosphere. The samples were characterized using elemental analysis, adsorption of nitrogen, Boehm titration, FTIR and XPS. Testing the carbons as the electrode materials in supercapacitors indicated that the electrochemical behavior of modified samples is governed mainly by the specific types of functional groups. Both surface chemistry and texture of carbons are affected by the nitrogen source and the type of oxygen functionalities preexisting on the surface. The modified carbons revealed significantly enhanced capacitances in 1 M H2SO4 reaching 300 F/g and the capacitance retention ratio is 86% at the current load of 1 A/g. Perfect correlations were found between the number of basic groups and the gravimetric capacitance and between the normalized capacitance in micropores and the distribution of quaternary and pyridinic-N-oxide nitrogen species on the surface of the micropores. The pseudocapacitance on N and O atoms is particularly dominant at higher current loads and the charge on quaternary nitrogen and pyridinic-N-oxide enhances the electron transport through the electrode improving the rate performance of treated samples. The micropores were found to be most effective in a double-layer formation. 相似文献

The catalytic oxidation of hydrogen sulphide (H2S) on various activated carbon materials was studied. The effects of pore structure, surface characteristics, and nitrogen content on the activity and selectivity of the carbons towards oxidation of H2S were investigated. It was found that a high volume of both micropores and small mesopores, in combination with a relatively narrow pore size distribution, were crucial for the retention of sulphur dioxide (SO2), a by-product of H2S oxidation. For the retention of carbonyl sulphide (COS), another H2S oxidation by-product, high surface reactivity with a significant amount of basic groups were found to be important. The only carbon with all these characteristics, and consequently the carbon that was able to retain both H2S and COS for an extended period of time, was an experimental product, “WSC”. This carbon was found to be superior to the other carbons studied, exhibiting high activity and selectivity for oxidation of H2S to sulphur. H2S breakthrough capacities and selectivity values of the carbons were found to be dependent on the nitrogen content of the carbons. In a hydrogen stream, carbons possessing the highest nitrogen contents exhibited the greatest H2S breakthrough capacities but, at the same time, the lowest selectivity with respect to sulphur formation. In reformate streams, the maximum breakthrough capacity and greatest selectivity were exhibited by carbons with a nitrogen content of about 1-1.5 wt%. 相似文献

Interaction of hydrogen with carbon coils at low temperature 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Hydrogen was adsorbed on carbon coils under 10 MPa hydrogen gas at liquid nitrogen temperature. The equilibrium pressure of hydrogen desorbed from the as-grown carbon coils with an amorphous structure was three to four times greater than those of multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWNT) and active carbons (AC). The heat treatment of the carbon coils at 850 °C contributed to an increase in hydrogen adsorption by 20% compared to the as-grown carbon coils. On the other hand, the adsorption of hydrogen gas on the carbon coils decreased significantly after heat treatment at a temperature higher than 1000 °C due to formation of capsule-like carbon composed of 10-20 layers on the surface of the carbon coils. 相似文献

The kinetics and reaction mechanism of the oxidation of hydrogen sulfide over activated carbon were studied in the temperature range 125–200°C. The heats of adsorption of oxygen and H2S were found to be 73.8 and 16.0 kJ/mol, respectively, in the above temperature range. The sorption constants and the reaction constant have been expressed as a function of temperature. The role of water in the oxidation reaction has been clarified. No evidence was found to show that sulfur catalyzes the oxidation reaction. 相似文献

This paper presents the development of granular functionalized-activated carbon as catalysts in the catalytic oxidative desulfurization (Cat-ODS) of commercial Malaysian diesel using hydrogen peroxide as oxidant. Granular functionalized-activated carbon was prepared from oil palm shell using phosphoric acid activation method and carbonized at 500 °C and 700 °C for 1 h. The activated carbons were characterized using various analytical techniques to study the chemistry underlying the preparation and calcination treatment. Nitrogen adsorption/desorption isotherms exhibited the characteristic of microporous structure with some contribution of mesopore property. The Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy results showed that higher activation temperature leads to fewer surface functional groups due to thermal decomposition. Micrograph from Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope showed that activation at 700 °C creates orderly and well developed pores. Furthermore, X-ray Diffraction patterns revealed that pyrolysis has converted crystalline cellulose structure of oil palm shell to amorphous carbon structure. The influence of the reaction temperature, the oxidation duration, the solvent, and the oxidant/sulfur molar ratio were examined. The rates of the catalytic oxidative desulfurization reaction were found to increase with the temperature, and H2O2/S molar ratio. Under the best operating condition for the catalytic oxidative desulfurization: temperature 50 °C, atmospheric pressure, 0.5 g activated carbon, 3 mol ratio of hydrogen peroxide to sulfur, 2 mol ratio of acetic acid to sulfur, 3 oxidation cycles with 1 h for each cycle using acetonitrile as extraction solvent, the sulfur content in diesel was reduced from 2189 ppm to 190 ppm with 91.3% of total sulfur removed. 相似文献

Polypropylene, polystyrene, high density polyethylene and their mixtures and real-world plastic waste were investigated for the production of hydrogen in a two-stage pyrolysis-gasification reactor. The experiments were carried out at gasification temperatures of 800 or 850 °C with or without a Ni-Mg-Al catalyst. The influence of plastic type on the product distribution and hydrogen production in relation to process conditions were investigated. The reacted Ni-Mg-Al catalysts were analyzed by temperature-programmed oxidation and scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that lower gas yield (11.2 wt.% related to the mass of plastic) was obtained for the non-catalytic non-steam pyrolysis-gasification of polystyrene at the gasification temperature of 800 °C, compared with the polypropylene (59.6 wt.%) and high density polyethylene (53.5 wt.%) and waste plastic (45.5 wt.%). In addition, the largest oil product was observed for the non-catalytic pyrolysis-gasification of polystyrene. The presence of the Ni-Mg-Al catalyst greatly improved the steam pyrolysis-gasification of plastics for hydrogen production. The steam catalytic pyrolysis-gasification of polystyrene presented the lowest hydrogen production of 0.155 and 0.196 (g H2/g polystyrene) at the gasification temperatures of 800 and 850 °C, respectively. More coke was deposited on the catalyst for the pyrolysis-gasification of polypropylene and waste plastic compared with steam catalytic pyrolysis-gasification of polystyrene and high density polyethylene. Filamentous carbons were observed for the used Ni-Mg-Al catalysts from the pyrolysis-gasification of polypropylene, high density polyethylene, waste plastic and mixed plastics. However, the formation of filamentous carbons on the coked catalyst from the pyrolysis-gasification of polystyrene was low. 相似文献

Dynamical adsorption and temperature-programmed desorption of VOCs (toluene, butyl acetate and butanol) on activated carbons 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The elimination of solvent vapors from paint shop atmospheres and their recovery for possible re-use is a current environmental requirement. We have studied the dynamical adsorption at 23 °C of typical car paint solvents, i.e. toluene, butylacetate and butanol, on two microporous activated carbons, and the thermal regeneration of these carbons with hot air at 150 °C. A sequence of seven adsorption-desorption cycles with a mixture of these solvents left the carbons with some textural changes but the adsorption capacity remained virtually unaffected. Heavy volatile compounds, proceeding from the possibly unstabilized binder, are eliminated in the course of the first adsorption-desorption runs. Differential scanning calorimetry applied to the desorption in argon of pure solvents showed that the desorption enthalpies ΔHdes are close to, or slightly larger than, the evaporation enthalpies ΔHvap except for butanol, which exhibited a particularly high ΔHdes value. Temperature-programmed desorption experiments, obtained with carbon samples heated in a helium flow containing oxygen traces, evidenced the desorption of numerous oxidation products. This finding may have consequences for hot air regeneration processes. 相似文献

Nanoporous carbons with graphitic domains were synthesized from a polymer containing sulfur and nitrogen. The materials were characterized using adsorption of nitrogen, potentiometric titration TA/MS, XPS, TEM and XRD. Then they were tested as supercapacitors in three-electrode cell and under visible light irradiation after extensive wetting either in water or a sulfuric acid electrolyte. The capacitance up to 450 F/g was measured in spite of a relatively low surface (<850 m2/g). The surface chemistry, and especially sulfur and nitrogen containing functional groups, were found of paramount importance for the capacitive behavior and for the effective pore space utilization by the electrolyte ions. Photocurrent measured in light also affects the capacitance. Its generation is linked to the excitation of sulfonic/sulfoxide chromophores-like moieties decorating the surface of the polymer-derived carbons. 相似文献
