Several series of activated carbons have been prepared from almond shells by mean of carbonization in a flow of nitrogen followed by activation in a flow of carbon dioxide. The carbonized material is essentially microporous with pore dimensions close to those of the nitrogen molecule as deduced from

✦ Synopsis
Preparation of activated carbons from eucalyptus kraft lignin has been investigated. A pretreatment method has been established to avoid partial fusion and swelling in the carbonization stage. Carbonization has been studied at different temperatures and the structure of the microporous chars has been characterized. Activated carbons have been prepared from CO1 partial gasification of chars obtained at 823 and 107 3 K. Both chars show a comparable behavior regarding to the evolution ofporous structure. Activation increases both total and narrow microporosity and develops a substantial mesoporosity. At high burnoff levels, macroporosity becomes also significant. BET surface areas in the vicinity of I ,300-1,400 m2/g have been achieved at burnoff levels around 70-7596 which correspond to overall carbon to lignin yields of about IO%-1 I % (d.a.f. basis).
