Abstract

A carbon material (MS-032) was synthesized from polymer raw materials and characterized by various methods, including N2 adsorption–desorption at 77 K, X-ray powder diffraction analysis, Fourier transform IR spectroscopy, and Raman spectroscopy. The obtained adsorbent has a well-developed porous structure (SBET = 2722 m2/g, VDFT = 1.08 cm3/g). The adsorption of methane was studied over a wide range of pressures at temperatures above the critical one. The maximum adsorption value is ~14 mmol/g at 298.15 K and 10 МРа. The experimental data on the methane adsorption on MS-032 were analyzed using the Dubinin–Radushkevich adsorption model in the temperature range 298.15–323.15 K and pressures up to 10 МРа. It was determined that the average relative deviations between the experimental results and the results obtained using the Dubinin–Radushkevich model are less than 4%. The differential molar heats of methane adsorption decrease from ~25 to ~10 kJ/mol. The calculated characteristic energies of adsorption are in the range of 5.88–6.21 kJ/mol, which indicates that the process of methane adsorption on MS-032 is physical adsorption. MS-032 carbon material has high methane adsorption capacity and has good prospects for controlling methane emissions and reducing greenhouse gases.
