The Influence of Carbon Sorbent Surface Properties on the Adsorption of Poly- and Heterocyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons

  • ECOLOGY
  • Published:
Refractories and Industrial Ceramics Aims and scope

The influence of the carbon sorbent surface structure and electron affinity of the molecule on the adsorption of poly- and heterocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons is evaluated. By adjusting the reducing ability of the surface of the carbon material, it is possible to control the adsorption process and the selectivity of the sorbent relative to condensed aromatic systems.
