The purpose of this study is to produce the low-cost activated carbon from the sour cherry (Prunus cerasus L.) stones, known as a waste of fruit juice industry, by chemical activation using zinc chloride. The effects of the activation temperature and the impregnation ratio on the surface and chemical properties of activated carbon were investigated. Also, the mathematical correlation between the activation...
Coal-fired power plants provided between 45% and 50% of the United States net energy generation in the years between 1999 and 2010 and will continue to be a primary source of electricity into the future. Among the major environmental concerns of coal utilization is the release of mercury (Hg), which was recently regulated by the US EPA in the Mercury and Air Toxics Standards (MATS) ruling in December...
This work was based on methane adsorption over four activated carbons with different micropore structures. Applying the more precise D–A adsorption model, the heterogeneity of activated carbon was proved to be initial factor influencing methane adsorption. The correlation between the microporosity and methane adsorption capacity were discussed in detail. The average pore size of activated carbons...
Fe catalysts supported on activated carbon untreated and treated by HNO 3 were prepared by an ultrasound-assisted incipient wetness method and characterized using N 2 adsorption/desorption, scanning electron microscopic (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Desulfurization activity was evaluated at a fixed bed reactor under a simulated flue gas...
The removal of carbon disulfide (CS 2 ) from gas streams via FeCu/AC catalyst modified by non-thermal plasma (NTP) were investigated. In particular, effects of treatment conditions on the catalyst’s properties were studied. The properties change in the catalyst after NTP modification is measured by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and scanning electron microscope...
The aqueous-phase reforming (APR) of biomass-derived compounds has been considered as a promising way to produce hydrogen and developing active reforming catalysts for this process is the challenging issue. The current research was conducted to determine the effect of particle size of support on activity and hydrogen selectivity of activated carbon supported platinum catalyst for APR of glucose, biomass-derived...
