摘要
In this work,the effect of the textural property of activated carbons on desorption activation energy and adsorption capacity for benzothiophene(BT)was investigated.BET surface areas and the textural parameters of three kinds of the activated carbons,namely SY-6,SY-13 and SY-19,were measured with an ASAP 2010 instrument.The desorption activation energies of BT on the activated carbons were determined by temperature-programmed desorption(TPD).Static adsorption experiments were carried out to determine the isotherms of BT on the activated carbons.The influence of the textural property of the activated carbons on desorption activation energy and the adsorption capacity for BT was discussed.Results showed that the BET surface areas of the activated carbons,SY-6,SY-13 and SY-19 were 1106,1070 and 689 m2·g^(-1),respectively,and their average pore diameters were 1.96,2.58 and 2.16 nm,respectively.The TPD results indicated that the desorption activation energy of BT on the activated carbons,SY-6,SY-19 and SY-13 were 58.84,53.02 and 42.57 KJ/mol,respectively.The isotherms showed that the amount of BT adsorbed on the activated carbons followed the order of SY-6>SY-19>SY-13.The smaller the average pore diameter of the activated carbon,the stronger its adsorption for BT and the higher the activation energy required for BT desorption on its surface.The Freundlich adsorption isotherm model can be properly used to formulate the adsorption behavior of BT on the activated carbons.
