Conclusions
-
1.
The adsorption isotherms of N2 at 77 K on the surface of carbonaceous adsorbents in the region of low relative pressures are satisfactorily described by the Dubinin-Radushkevich (DR) equation. However, the a0 parameter of the DR equation is not related to the monolayer capacity, and for samples with the most homogeneous surface the quantity a0 substantially exceeds the BET monolayer capacity.
-
2.
The adsorption isotherms calculated per unit surface area of adsorbent can be grouped in terms of the E0 value of the DR equation; this can be regarded as a measure of the degree of energetic heterogeneity of the samples.
-
3.
For samples with E0 < 15.5 kJ/mole, the specific surface areas calculated by the BET method and by the γ and δ methods are similar.
-
4.
The samples of carbonaceous adsorbents with E0 > 15.5 kJ/mole are characterized by surface heterogeneity associated with the presence of micropores.
