Abstract

PURPOSE:To increase specific surface area under mild conditions in a high yield at a low cost by crushing coal, subjecting the resulting coal powder to hydrogenolysis to obtain char and activating this char. CONSTITUTION:Anthracite or low-grade coal contg. <=70wt.% of fixed carbon such as peat is crushed to obtain coal powder of <=100 mesh grain size. This coal powder is subjected to hydrogenolysis at 600-1,000 deg.C in an H2 atmosphere under 1-100kg/cm<2>.G pressure to obtain char (carbonaceous material). An activator such as steam or NaOH is added to the char as required and the char is activated at 700-900 deg.C to produce activated carbon having 700-1,400m<2>/g specific surface area (BET method).

A method for directly producing activated carbon by activating steam while stirring at a temperature of 1000° C. or higher is disclosed. However, since the activation temperature is as high as 1000° C. or higher, this method has disadvantages in that it is poor in thermal economy and has a low yield of activated carbon.

Means for Solving the Problems As a result of intensive research in view of the problems of the conventional technology, the present inventor developed a method for activating char (carbonaceous material) obtained by pre-hydrogenating coal. It has been found that in this case, activation is possible under relatively mild conditions, the yield of activated carbon is high, and a highly active product can be obtained. That is, the present invention provides a method for producing activated carbon, which is characterized by pulverizing coal, hydrogenolyzing it, and activating the generated char.

The type of coal is not particularly limited, and any coal such as peat, lignite, lignite, bituminous coal, anthracite, etc. can be used. One of the advantages of the present invention is that
Low-grade coals such as peat, lignite, and lignite with less than 70% fixed carbon, which could not be used in the method described in Publication No. 598, can also be used as raw materials, and these low-grade coals can be used. In some cases, as will be described later, activated carbon of even better quality can be obtained. The particle size of coal powder is
It is preferable to pass 100 meshes or less.

The conditions for hydrogenation treatment of coal powder are under a hydrogen atmosphere at a pressure of 1
~100 kg/ca・G (reaction time can be shortened by increasing the pressure, but it is necessary to increase the pressure resistance of the device, so it is preferable to set it at about 10 kg/ca・G),
Temperature: about 600-1000°C, more preferably 800-1000°C
It should be about 850. Since the reaction in the hydrogenation treatment of coal is a thermal decomposition reaction that progresses rapidly, carbonization progresses rapidly and a char with a specific surface area of about 200 to 250 rT1t/g and a developed pore structure is obtained. This char has the following unique properties, and by subjecting it to the subsequent activation treatment, the high quality activated carbon of the present invention can be obtained.
