Porosity Development in Activated Carbons Prepared from Walnut Shells by Carbon Dioxide or Steam Activation

González, Juan F., Román, Silvia, González-García, Carmen M., Nabais, J. M. Valente, Ortiz, A. Luis·2009·Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research

Abstract

The influence of carbon dioxide and steam as activating agents on the porosity development of activated carbons produced from walnut shells was investigated. The study was made covering a wide range of burnoff (12−76%) and employing different temperatures and times: in carbon dioxide activation, 850 °C varying the activation time in the range 60−480 min, and in steam activation, 700, 850, and 900 °C (for 30−120 min). It was found that the gasifying agent has a profound influence on the activated carbon porosity development. First, steam is more reactive and produces, in general, activated carbons with greater N 2 adsorption capacity. Second, the increase in the fraction of mesopores with activation time is more pronounced for steam. While steam generates micro-, meso-, and macropores from the early stages of the process, carbon dioxide produces highly microporous carbons, with broadening of the microporosity only for long activation times.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Steam activation produces more mesoporous carbons than CO2 activation.

    “It has been shown that steam activation produces more mesoporous carbons than CO 2 activation [35,36].”
  • Steam reacts more readily with carbon pore walls and begins to expand existing pores, whereas CO2 creates microporosity by reacting primarily with active sites at pore centers.

    “Steam reacts more readily with the carbon pore walls and begins to expand the existing pores, whereas CO 2 creates microporosity by reacting primarily with the active sites at the pore centers [35].”
  • Surface area as high as 1361 m2/g has been achieved for crushed walnut shells (particle size 1-2 mm) using steam activation at 850°C and 60 min.

    “Surface area as high as 1361 m 2 /g has been achieved for crushed walnut shells (particle size 1-2 mm), for example, using steam activation at 850 • C and 60 min [35].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
