Popis: | The aim of this work aims to synthesize the high performance porous carbons from lignin and rice husk (RH) via one-step pyrolysis with KOH and PVC. And those porous carbons were evaluated for toluene sorption. The unactivated biochars had ultralow specific surface area (SBET). By co-pyrolysis of biomass with KOH, the SBET of bio-carbon was significantly improved. The addition of PVC can further enhance the SBET. Additionally, the SBET of lignin-carbons was higher than that of RH-carbons. It was attributed to the destruction of pore structures in the RH chars with high salts by the washing process. Compared with the RH carbons, the lignin carbons had a higher micro-porosity. As for toluene sorption, the maximum breakthrough time (2195 min) and sorption capacity (263.4 mg g−1) were achieved using LPKC. The textural properties (e.g., pore volume, micro-porosity, and hierarchically porous structure) can take significant effects on the sorption process. |
