Özet
In this study, active carbons prepared from almond and hazelnut shells under various experimental conditions were investigated. Merck-2514 and Merck-2184 active carbons were used for comparison. N2 (77 K) gas and CO2 (273 and 195 K) gas adsorptions were determined as comparison criteria. Regarding the specific surface area and micropore volume results obtained from these adsorption data, it is concluded that N2 (77 K) adsorption by itself is inadequate in the characterization of active carbons which are low-sized microporous dominated. In addition, it is concluded that it would be useful to investigate CO2 (195 and 273 K) adsorption. The iodine and methylene blue tests at 298 K were also applied for the characterization of the carbon adsorbents mentioned. From these data it was seen that the iodine test can be applied as a total porosity indicator and that the methylene blue test can be used as a developed microporosity indicator. These results indicate that the best adsorbents were those prepared from hazelnut shells. Depending on the preparation conditions, the physically activated carbon has an activation time up to 4 hours and has adsorption properties on the level of Merck commercial carbons.
