Abstract
Effect of physical property of activated carbon on its carbon dioxide adsorption was investigated for the effective control of carbon dioxide. Pinewood sawdust and coal were used as raw materials of activated carbon. Specific surface area, micropore volume and mesopore volume of the prepared activated carbons were determined, respectively. The prepared activated carbons were analyzed for their adsorption capacity of carbon dioxide. The adsorption capacity was then presented with respect to the surface area, micropore volume and mesopore volume, respectively. As a result, the specific surface area and micropore volume of both pinewood and coal activated carbon were highly related to its carbon dioxide capacity. Its mesopore volume hardly affected its carbon dioxide capacity. Preparation of activated carbon with high specific surface area and micropore volume was found to be critical to the effective control of carbon dioxide.
