Efficient Adsorption of Ammonia by Surface-Modified Activated Carbon Fiber Mesh.

ABSTRACT: In view of the characteristics and risks of ammonia, its removal is important for industrial production and environmental safety. In this study, viscose-based activated carbon fiber (ACF) was used as a substrate and chemically modified by nitric acid impregnation to enhance the adsorption capacity of the adsorbent for ammonia. A series of modified ACF-based adsorbents were prepared and characterized using BET, FTIR, XPS, and Boehm titration. Isotherm tests (293.15 K, 303.15 K, 313.15 K) and dynamic adsorption experiments were performed. The characterization results showed that impregnation with low concentrations of nitric acid not only increased the surface acidic functional group content but also increased the specific surface area, while impregnation with high concentrations of nitric a
