THERMODYNAMIC STUDY OF HIGH-PRESSURE ADSORPTION OF METHANE AND HEATS OF METHANE ADSORPTION ON MICROPOROUS CARBONS

摘要

The study was done for high pressure adsorption of methane on microporous carbons, which has an ANG vehicular application background. Adsorption isotherm of methane on super activated carbon up to 6 MPa was measured and isosteric heats of methane adsorption on a number of microporous carbons were determined from adsorption isosteres by the Clausius Clapeyron equation. The variation of the isosteric heats of adsorption with the amount of methane adsorbed was discussed.
