Popis: International audience; 20 activated carbons (ACs) were prepared by activation of four coals of different ranks (bituminous, low-ash bituminous and sub-bituminous coals, and one anthracite) with potassium hydroxide, in order to evaluate their hydrogen storage capacities at -196 degrees C. The effect of surface area and oxygen content on hydrogen storage was examined. Oxygen content was determined by temperature-programmed desorption. The significance of oxygen content on hydrogen storage capacity was evaluated by Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). Apparent surface areas higher than 3000 m(2) g(-1) and hydrogen adsorption as high as 6.8 wt.% were obtained. The best results were obtained with ACs from bituminous coals. No significant effect of oxygen content on hydrogen adsorption was observed. We concluded that surface area controls hydrogen storage capacity at -196 degrees C.
