Characterization of Maxsorb Activated Carbons and Their Evaluation for Gas Storage

A series of Maxsorb activated carbons, in powder, pellet and disk form, has been characterized by N 2 adsorption, following which CH 4 adsorption at high pressures up to 3.5 MPa was studied for the different samples. The evaluation of these materials for gas storage shows very promising behaviour fo...

Description
Summary:A series of Maxsorb activated carbons, in powder, pellet and disk form, has been characterized by N 2 adsorption, following which CH 4 adsorption at high pressures up to 3.5 MPa was studied for the different samples. The evaluation of these materials for gas storage shows very promising behaviour for Maxsorb disks with a storage capacity of 150 volumes of gas at STP per container volume at 3.5 MPa.
