Effect of Surface Oxygen Groups on Irreversible Adsorption of Volatile Organic Compounds on Beaded Activated Carbon
DownloadSpring 2017
Adsorption by activated carbons is a widely used method for controlling emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). However, accumulation of adsorbates and/or regeneration by-products (heel buildup) during cyclic process is a common challenge in this process. Irreversible adsorption restricts...

Effects of Adsorbate Properties on Heel Buildup on Activated Carbon Fiber Cloth during Electrothermal Regeneration
DownloadSpring 2017
Automotive painting booths are a major source of volatile organic compounds’ (VOCs) in the automotive manufacturing sector. Adsorption on activated carbon (AC) has been widely used as a low cost and energy efficient VOC control method. A major challenge associated with the cyclic...
