Estudio de la microporosidad estrecha de carbones activados obtenidos de semilla de palma por activaci贸n qu铆mica con KOH
Se estudi贸 el desarrollo de los microporos por v铆a qu铆mica en carbones que se obtuvieron a partir de semillas
de la palma veitchia merriillii, utilizando en todos los casos una baja relaci贸n KOH/carbonizado y flujo de nitr贸geno. El
procedimiento de obtenci贸n fue realizado mediante dos pasos, carbonizaci贸n y activaci贸n, en este 煤ltimo, se utilizaron
temperaturas de activaci贸n crecientes de 873, 973, 1 073 y 1 173 K respectivamente. La caracterizaci贸n fue llevada a cabo
mediante las isotermas de adsorci贸n de CO2 a 295 K, en un equipo de vidrio pyrex y varias v谩lvulas de tefl贸n, acoplado a
un sistema Edward de alto vac铆o, el que tambi茅n consta de un transductor de presi贸n. Los resultados se compararon con
los publicados por Dubinin para los carbones comerciales tipo tamiz molecular CMS4A y CMS5A y con carbones microporosos
con diferentes porcentajes de quemado o burn off, obtenidos tambi茅n por Dubinin a partir de cascar贸n de coco.
Por otra parte, se estudi贸 la influencia de la temperatura de activaci贸n y de la relaci贸n KOH/carbonizado en todos los
resultados. Las conclusiones en este trabajo indican de manera general que los carbones activados obtenidos presentan
vol煤menes de microporos y microporosidades estrechas tan o m谩s desarrolladas que los carbones obtenidos del mismo
material activado por v铆a f铆sica y tambi茅n mayores que los dem谩s carbones obtenidos por Dubinin con los que fueron
comparados, por lo que pueden ser utilizados como material de partida para la obtenci贸n de carbones tipo tamiz molecula
Acid natural clinoptilolite: Structural properties against adsorption/separation of n-paraffins
International audienceThe employment of an acid natural clinoptilolite (AZH-1) in the adsorption and separation of n-paraffins has been evaluated. Natural clinoptilolite, NZ, was the raw material used to prepare the sodiumexchanged clinoptilolite (AZ) starting from which the AZH-1 sample was obtained by acid treatment. The structural stability of the samples after the applied treatments was demonstrated. The nitrogen adsorption experiments indicated that the acid sample has a homogeneous porous distribution and a considerable increase in the micropore volume with respect to NZ and AZ. The employment of the inverse gas chromatography at infinite dilution (IGCID) allowed studying the adsorption and separation of n-paraffin mixtures on AZH-1. It was also confirmed that the diffusion on AZH-1 took place in an unblocked structure through the A channel of ten members with minimal interactions. The IGCID results demonstrated the capacities of the acid Cuban natural zeolite in the adsorption and separation of n-paraffin mixtures
Adsorption and separation of propane and propylene by porous hexacyanometallates
The separation capability for mixtures of propane and propylene by porous frameworks representatives
of transition metal hexacyanometallates was studied from adsorption data under equilibrium conditions
at 273.15K and from inverse gas chromatography profiles at different column temperatures. Samples of
two porous solids were considered; Cd3[Co(CN)6]2, which is representative of Prussian blue analogues
(cubic structure) with a porous framework related to vacancies for building block, and Zn3[Co(CN)6]2
(rhombohedral phase) where the porous framework results from the tetrahedral coordination for the Zn
atoms. The two materials were found to be able for the mixtures separation, with the highest separation
ability for the rhombohedral phase under equilibrium conditions but, in dynamic conditions the cubic
one shown a better separation, which was ascribed to a kinetic contribution related to a smaller windows
size.
