Argon adsorption isotherms measured at 77.5 K on various microporous activated carbons were analysed to characterize the structural heterogeneities of these sorbents. It was found that the adsorption isotherms could be described by an isotherm equation associated with the gamma micropore-size distri

β¦ Synopsis
Adsorption methods for characterizing the microporosity of activated carbons are discussed critically. Three methods-the a,-method and those based on the Dubinin-Radushkevich and Jaroniec-Choma isotherm equations-are compared with respect to the parameters that characterize the microporous structure of a solid. It is shown that the isotherm equations that account for the structural heterogeneity of activated carbons give values of the micropore volume similar to that obtained by the a,-method.

The physico-chemical characteristics of activated carbons obtained from different agricultural by-products by pyrolysis in a stream of water vapor have been investigated. It was established that under the same conditions of treatment the physico-chemical and adsorption characteristics of activated c
Activated carbons have been prepared from a semianthracite preoxidised in air to different degrees. The activation has been carried out in steam at 850Β°C to 5Ok 1% burnoff. The adsorption isotherms of nitrogen at 77 K and COZ at 273 K have been determined. The adsorption isotherms indicate that the
## A new analytical model to describe equilibrium adsorption of condensable vapors on porous adsorbents is developed. It accounts for the heterogeneous pore structure of the adsorbent, adsorption in the micropores by a pore filling mechanism and adsorption and condensation in the macropores. A gam
The characterization of three commercial activated carbons was carried out using the adsorption of various compounds in the aqueous phase. For this purpose the generalized adsorption isotherm was employed, and a modification of the Dubinin-Radushkevich pore filling model, incorporating repulsive con
