Abstract

Methane storage was studied on the wet activated carbons by hydrate formation in the mesopore structures. Coconut shell was used as a raw material for preparation of the activated carbon samples. These highly mesoporous samples were prepared by the combination of both physical and chemical activation processes. After wetting the adsorbents with a constant water/carbon weight ratio (R) close to 1, the isotherms were obtained at 2°C up to the pressure of 80 bars. Wetted carbons exhibited stepwise isotherms at the critical pressure in the pressure range of 25–50 bars depending on the activated carbon samples. At this critical pressure,hydrate formation took place slowly. The amounts of methane uptake at 80 bars were obtained ranging from 14.9 to 24.8 mmol.g–1 based on the dry adsorbent for different samples. By considering the density of activated carbon samples, the amounts of methane storage varied in the range of 185–237 V/V.
