Pressurized physical activation: A simple production method for activated carbon with a highly developed pore structure

Hyeonseok Yi et al.

Summary: Activated carbon is produced by physical or chemical activation methods. While physical activation methods are commonly used in industry due to lower production costs, they are less effective compared to chemical activation methods in terms of pore development. A novel pressurized physical activation method is proposed to increase activating agent diffusibility and pore development, resulting in activated carbon with higher specific surface area and unique pore size distribution.

An overview on engineering the surface area and porosity of biochar

Lijian Leng et al.

Summary: Surface area and porosity are crucial physical properties of biochar that significantly impact its applications, with biomass composition and pyrolysis temperature being major influencing factors. Activation, particularly through chemical means, is the most effective way to enhance biochar surface area and porosity, while other treatment methods like carbonaceous materials coating and ball milling can also contribute to improvement. Future research should focus on developing treatment technologies to simultaneously enhance the functionality and porous structure of biochar.
