Anthracite based activated carbon impregnated with HMTA as an effectiveness adsorbent could significantly uptake gasoline vapors
In this study, we synthesized and employed the amine impregnated activated carbon as an efficacious adsorbent for uptaking gasoline vapor. For this regard, anthracite as activated carbon source and hexamethylenetetramine (HMTA) as amine were selected and utilized. Physiochemical characterization of...

description | In this study, we synthesized and employed the amine impregnated activated carbon as an efficacious adsorbent for uptaking gasoline vapor. For this regard, anthracite as activated carbon source and hexamethylenetetramine (HMTA) as amine were selected and utilized. Physiochemical characterization of made sorbents were evaluated and investigated using SEM, FESEM, BET, FTIR, XRD, zeta potential, and elemental analysis. The synthesized sorbents provided an excellent textural features as compared with the literature and other activated carbon based sorbents and impregnated with amine. Our findings also suggested that in addition to high surface area (up to 2150 m2 / g), the micro- meso pores created (Vmeso / V micro = 0.79 Cm 3 / g) surface chemistry may significantly affect the gasoline sorption capacity, which here the role of mesoporous is further highlighted. V meso for amine impregnated sample and free activated carbon was 0.89 and 0.31 Cm 3 / g, respectively. According to the results, the prepared sorbents have a potential capability in uptaking gasoline vapor and with line this, we report a high sorption capacity of 572.56 mg / g. After, four cycles used the sorbent had a high durability and about 99.11% of the initial uptake was maintained. Taking together the synthesized adsorbents as an activated carbon provided an excellent and unique features and enhanced gasoline uptake, therefore its applicability in uptaking gasoline vapor can be substantially considered. |
