Columnar Activated Carbon For PSA Adsorption

Activated carbon for pressure swing adsorption is mainly used in industry for gas separation, purification and concentration. Its core functions include:

Gas separation: In the pressure swing adsorption process, pellet activated carbon can selectively adsorb certain gases according to factors such as gas molecular size, polarity, boiling point difference, etc. due to its special pore structure and high specific surface area, so as to achieve the separation of mixed gases. For example, it is often used in industry to separate oxygen and nitrogen in the air to obtain high-purity oxygen or nitrogen.

Purification and purification: Activated carbon can adsorb impurities, harmful substances or colored and odorous organic compounds in the gas, such as VOCs (volatile organic compounds), sulfides, carbon monoxide, ammonia, etc., thereby purifying the gas and improving the purity of the gas product.

Dehydration and drying: Activated carbon has a certain adsorption capacity for water vapor, so it can also be dehydrated and dried during the gas treatment process to ensure that the gas used in subsequent processes or is dry and pure.

Recycling: In some chemical production processes, activated carbon is used to recover valuable gases or rare gases through pressure swing adsorption technology to reduce resource waste and achieve economic and environmental benefits.

In conclusion, activated carbon for pressure swing adsorption plays a vital role in the gas treatment industry due to its excellent adsorption performance and reversible adsorption characteristics under pressure swing conditions.
