Methane storage in a commercial activated carbon
Journal Title: Carbon - Science and Technology - Year 2008, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
A commercial activated carbon was examined for possible methane storage application. The structural and surface properties of the carbon were characterized by Nitrogen adsorption isotherm at 77 oK. It was found that the carbon is largely microporous with a surface area of approximately 860 m2/g. Adsorption test shows the carbon is able to achieve a methane storage capacity of approximately 70/cc.
