Adsorption Desorption

Adsorbed natural gas (ANG) can be developed through its porous adsorbent, especially activated carbon (AC) which has larger specific surface area. AC made of soybean straw is developed because of its abundance as agricultural waste in Indonesia and high lignocellulosic content. AC is produced in 500°C furnace for 1 hour with nitrogen gas flow of 200 mL/minute. For AC production, variations of chemical activating agents utilizing ZnCl2 and KOH and the concentration NiO as modification substance are made in this paper. Characterizations are made through iodine number, SEM, EDX, and nitrogen adsorption-desorption for obtaining data of adsorption capacity, surface topography, main composition, and particles specification. ZnCl2 activated carbon shows better result with iodine number of 577.73 mg/g and SBET of 741.26 m2/g, and the second-best is found in 2%-NiO-modified ZnCl2 activated carbon with iodine number of 534.79 mg/g and SBET of 632.24 m2/g. It is concluded that development of soybean straw as activated carbon precursor is still needed to obtain larger SBETand better adsorption capacity.

Dabai (Canarium odontophyllum) nutshells have considerable potential to be used as a viable precursor for biomass-based activated carbon. The material was carbonized at a temperature of 700 °C for 2 h, at a heating rate of 10 °C/min under nitrogen gas flow. The char was analyzed the following ways: percentage of yield, percentage of ash content, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive x-ray analysis, and Brunauer, Emmett, and Teller surface area. The char had a maximum Brunauer, Emmett, and Teller surface area of 428 m2/g and the nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherm of the char that was similar to a Type I adsorption isotherm, based on IUPAC classifications. The char also had a high carbon content (up to 93.6%) and a low ash content (3.67%). Therefore, dabai nutshells were found to be a suitable lignocellulosic precursor for the synthesis of activated carbon.

Heavy metal such as Cu, Fe, and Zn are the most serious contributers to environmental problems. The removal of heavy metal from the environment is the research interest nowdays. The adsorption of Cu, Fe and Zn from wastewater was investigated with various activated carbons as adsorbents. The activated carbons were produced from oil palm leaves by using multi-activation methods. The H3PO4, NaOH, ZnCl2 and KOH were chosen as chemical activating agents. Batch adsorption experiment was used to test the ability of activated carbon to remove Cu, Fe, and Zn from wastewater. The surface characteristics of activated carbon were evaluated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms. The Activated carbons were able to purify wastewater with a maximum turbidity level of 2.83 NTU. The AC-H3PO4 activated carbon showed the highest absorbability of Cu metal as 91.540%, while the highest absorbabilities of Zn and Fe metals were indicated by AC-KOH activated carbon of 22.853% and 82.244% absorption respectively. Therefore, these results enable the oil palm leaves to become a high potential for activated carbon as removal the heavy metals.

Carbon-silica composites with nanoporous structures were synthesized for the adsorption of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), taking tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) as the silicon source and activated carbon powder as the carbon source. The preparation conditions were as follows: the pH of the reaction system was 5.5, the hydrophobic modification time was 50 h, and the dosage of activated carbon was 2 wt%. Infrared spectrum analysis showed that the activated carbon was dispersed in the pores of aerogel to form the carbon-silica composites material. The static adsorption experiments, dynamic adsorption-desorption experiments, and regeneration experiments show that the prepared carbon-silica composites have microporous and mesoporous structures, the adsorption capacity for n-hexane is better than that of conventional hydrophobic silica gel, and the desorption performance is better than that of activated carbon. It still has a high retention rate of adsorption capacity after multiple adsorption-desorption cycles. The prepared carbon-silica composites material has good industrial application prospects in oil vapor recovery, providing a new alternative for solving organic waste gas pollution.

AbstractSamples of activated bentonite and activated bentonite modified with CuCl and CuCl2, separately, were tested as dimethyl sulfide (DMS) adsorbents. The adsorption and desorption behaviours of DMS on the adsorbents were studied systematically. The adsorbents were characterised by nitrogen adsorption, XRD, and DMS-TPD tests. The addition of CuCl and CuCl2 to the activated carbon significantly enhanced the adsorption capacity of DMS, despite a notable decrease in the specific surface area and total pore volume of the activated bentonite. It is presumed that copper cation species may act as an adsorption site for DMS. The adsorption capacity of Cu(II)-bentonite was better than that of Cu(I)-bentonite. The DMS-TPD patterns indicate that the stronger electrophilicity of Cu(II) compared to that of Cu(I) caused it to interact with the DMS molecules more strongly, thus contributing to a better adsorptive performance. The Cu(II)-bentonite calcined at 150°C had the best DMS removal performance with a high sulphur capacity of 70.56 mg S g−1 adsorbent. The DMS removal performance became much lower with the increase in the calcination temperature, which appeared to be due to the decrease in the CuCl2·2H2O phase and the formation of the monoclinic Cu(OH)Cl phase.

NaY zeolite was prepared by a simple sol-gel process. The prepared NaY was characterized by XRD,FT-IR,N2adsorption/desorption isotherms, and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The CO2dynamic adsorption/desorption performance of NaY was tested under atmospheric pressure using adsorption curve method in the fixed bed. The results demonstrate that NaY offeres high separation efficiency for CO2against N2. To further identify the most adsorption conditions, different adsorption temperatures and gas flow rates were investigated respectively. It is shown that NaY zeolite has the largest adsorption capacity of 88 mg/g adsorbent at 60°C,50ml/min, and the sample maintains still strong adsorption capacity and stable structure during 6 consecutive test cycles, which exhibits its stable adsorption/desorption behavior.

Abstract In this study, MIL-101(Fe), MIL-101(Fe,Cu), and Graphene Oxide (GO) /MIL-101(Fe,Cu) were synthesized to compose a novel sorbent. The adsorption properties of these three MOFs-based composites were compared toward the removal of phosphate. Furthermore, the influencing factors including reaction time, pH, temperature and initial concentration on the adsorption capacity of phosphate on these materials as well as the reusability of the material were discussed. The structure of fabricated materials and the removal mechanism of phosphate on the composite material were analyzed by Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), nitrogen adsorption-desorption analysis and zeta potential. The results show that the maximum adsorption capacity of phosphate by the composite GO/MIL-101(Fe,Cu)-2% was 204.60 mg·g− 1, which is higher than that of MIL-101(Fe,Cu) and MIL-101(Fe). likewise the specific surface area of GO/MIL-101(Fe,Cu)-2% is 778.11 m2/g is higher than that of MIL-101(Fe,Cu) and MIL-101(Fe),which are 747.75 and 510.66m2/g respectively. The adsorption mechanism of phosphate is electrostatic attraction, form coordination bonds and hydrogen bonds. The fabricated material is a promising adsorbent for the removal of phosphate with good reusability.

The waste ion-exchange resin–based activated carbon (WIRAC) was utilized for CO2 adsorption. The effect of adsorption temperature, gas flow, CO2 concentration, and adsorbent filling content on CO2 adsorption properties of WIRAC and the effect of desorption temperature and sweep gas flow on CO2 desorption performances of WIRAC were researched. In the adsorption process, with the increase of adsorption temperature, the CO2 adsorption capacity and adsorption rate decrease; as the gas flow increases, the CO2 adsorption capacity decreases, but the adsorption rate increases; with the increase of CO2 concentration and adsorbent filling content, the CO2 adsorption capacity and adsorption rate both increase. In the desorption process, the higher the desorption temperature and the smaller the sweep gas flow, the higher the CO2 purity of product gas and the longer the desorption time. In order to make sure the adsorbent be used efficiently and the higher CO2 concentration of product gas, the adsorption and desorption conditions selected should be a suitable choice.
