Abstract

The adsorption performance of spherical activated carbon impregnated with different metal salt solutions for ammonia and the optimal ratio of the same impregnant were studied.The influence of different impregnation ratio on the surface morphology, phase structure and pore size distribution on impregnated carbon samples were investigated by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and Quanta adsorption instrument.The adsorption performance of the unmodified carbon and impregnated carbon for ammonia was studied by the fixed bed adsorption device.The results showed that the type of impregnant had a great influence on the adsorption performance of ammonia.Under the same impregnation conditions, the activated carbon impregnated with cobalt chloride had the best adsorption performance for ammonia.The sample with 50% impregnation ratio of cobalt chloride had the highest ammonia adsorption capacity up to 54.05 mg/mL, which was 37 times of the unmodified carbon.The physicochemical properties and temperature programmed desorption characteristics of the samples after ammonia adsorption were analyzed.The results showed that[Co(NH36]Cl3 was formed by the reaction of cobalt chloride with ammonia.
