The adsorption and desorption of sulfur dioxide by active carbon, treated by nitric acid and followed by heating at 200-lOOO"C, were studied. The HNOB treated carbon has a higher adsorption capacity for sulfur dioxide, than the untreated carbon, in spite of its lesser basicity. This may be the resul

β¦ Synopsis
The process of adsorptive-catalytic cleaning of gas from sulfur dioxide using active carbon, treated by concentrated nitric acid, was studied. After oxidative treatment the acidity of the carbon increases and the basicity decreases. This results in an increase of the SO, adsorption and its oxidation to SO,, and in weaker retention of the sulfuric acid formed. This facilitates the removal of H,SO, by washing of the carbon and allows to obtain a more concentrated acid. The efficiency of the treated carbon is also higher in the process of SO2 removal from a gas similar in composition to stack gases.
