Activated Carbon

Recent years have a positive effect on activated carbons, including medicine, filtration, and purification of liquids and gaseous media. Much of the current research and information. A comprehensive and integrated review of the reference. In this book, special attention is paid to activated carbon - including fibers, clothes, felts and monoliths. In addition, the use of activated carbon in granular and powder forms is the use of liquid and gaseous media is explored.
Activated Carbon will be essential for Material Scientists, Chemists and Engineers in academia and industry.

* Characterization of porosity
* The surface chemistry of the carbons,
* Methods of activation and mechanisms of adsorption.
* Computer modeling of structure and porosity within carbons.
* Modern instrumental analytical methods
