Hierarchically Porous Silk/Activated-Carbon Composite Fibres for Adsorption and Repellence of Volatile Organic Compounds

adsorption of volatile organic compounds on fluidized activated carbon bed

conclusions results indicated that annular fluidized bed reactor’s adsorbers are useful techniques for vocs adsorption. comparison of two particle ranges indicates that in all concentrations and all flow rates of the experiments, smaller particle size adsorption are better. in superficial velocity above the minimum fluidization velocity, pressure drop of fluidized beds are less than the pressur...

Electrospun Polyurethane/β-Cyclodextrin Composite Membranes for Aerosol Filtration and Adsorption of Volatile Organic Compounds from the Air

Introduction: Electrospun nanomembranes have been used for effective air filtration due to their potential for active surface modification. This study aims to synthesize polyurethane (PU) nanofiber membrane incorporated with different amounts of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) to capture volatile organic compounds (VOCs) along with aerosol filtration from the air. Material and Methods: First, PU was sy...

Adsorption of Volatile Organic Compounds from Aqueous Solution by Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) in Batch System

Hierarchically porous silicon–carbon–nitrogen hybrid materials towards highly efficient and selective adsorption of organic dyes

The hierarchically macro/micro-porous silicon-carbon-nitrogen (Si-C-N) hybrid material was presented with novel functionalities of totally selective and highly efficient adsorption for organic dyes. The hybrid material was conveniently generated by the pyrolysis of commercial polysilazane precursors using polydivinylbenzene microspheres as sacrificial templates. Owing to the Van der Waals force...

Adsorption of Volatile Organic Compounds from Aqueous Solution by Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) in Batch System

Chlorinated hydrocarbons and aromatics are the major volatile organic compounds that contaminate the ground water and industrial waste waters. The best way to overcome this problem is to recover the dissolved compounds in water. In order to evaluate the potential ability of granular activated carbon (GAC) for recovery of volatile organic compounds from water, the equilibrium adsorption was inve...
