Low temperature catalytic adsorption of NO over activated carbon honeycomb (ACH) monoliths

An activated carbon honeycomb (ACH) monolith was developed for the adsorption of NO at 30ºC. For ACH monoliths preparation carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and coal tar pitch were used as binder and co-binder, respectively. The effects of the addition of O2 and the presence of copper as catalyst were s...

Description
Summary:An activated carbon honeycomb (ACH) monolith was developed for the adsorption of NO at 30ºC. For ACH monoliths preparation carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and coal tar pitch were used as binder and co-binder, respectively. The effects of the addition of O2 and the presence of copper as catalyst were studied. For the Cu-impregnated activated carbon monolith samples, the presence of O2 favored NO adsorption by increasing the breakthrough time and the adsorption capacity.
