摘要
A technology for obtaining carbonaceous adsorbents by physical and chemical activation of waste materials from coffee industry is described. The effect of pyrolysis temperature and type of activation procedure on the textural parameters, acid-base character of the surface and sorption properties of activated carbons has been tested. The resulting carbons were characterized by low-temperature nitrogen sorption, determination of pH and the number of surface oxygen groups. The sorption properties of the activated carbons obtained were characterized by evaluation of nitrogen dioxide adsorption in dry and wet conditions. The final products were adsorbents of specific surface area ranging from 5 to 2,076 m(2)/g and pore volume from 0.03 to 1.25 cm(3)/g, showing very diverse acidic-basic character of the surface. The results obtained in our study have proved that a suitable choice of the pyrolysis and activation procedure for coffee industry wastes permits production of adsorbents with high sorption capacity of nitrogen dioxide, reaching to 44.5 and 84.1 mg NO2/g in dry and wet conditions, respectively.
