Abstract:
Carbon nutshells and hydrolytic lignin were used as starting materials for the preparation of microporous active carbons. Optimum parameters for cedar nutshell carbonization have been selected (temperature of carbonization 700–800 °C, rate of heating less than 3 °C/min) for the preparation of microporous carbons (average pore width 0.56 nm). The textural characteristics of microporous carbons made from nutshell are similar to those of a ‘Coconut’ carbon molecular sieve, but the latter has both a higher CO2 adsorption capacity and a higher coefficient of N2/O2 separation. The influence of carbonization and steam-activation parameters on the microtexture and molecular-sieve properties of granular carbons made from hydrolytic lignin was also investigated. A low rate of heating (less 3 °C/min) promotes the formation of micropores with average sizes around 0.56–0.58 nm at carbonization temperature 700 °C. At the same carbonization temperature the average sizes of micropores were 0.7–0.78 nm at rates of heating more than 3 °C/min. The activation of lignin-char with steam at 800 °C resulted in the formation of active carbons with more developed micropore volume (0.3–0.35 cm3 g−1) and with micropores of widths around 0.6–0.66 nm which are able to separate He from a He–CH4 mixture. The size of the micropores was varied as a function of burn off value.
