| description | Inevitable increase of carbon monoxide (CO) in the atmosphere as a result of its
emission from process gases,has remained a threat to the world ecosystem. It is then
expedient to develop technologies to either eliminate or at least reduce the
concentration of co to a minimum bearable level in order to protect the world from its
pollution. Consequently, Sn-Activated carbon adsorbent was developed and itsCOsorption
and thermodynamic properties were studied and then applied in PSA system.
Activated carbon was impregnated with 34.57% SnCH2.2H20 salt to improve its
adsorptive interaction with CO. It was observed that the amount of CO adsorbed was
almost equal to that desorbed which could imply that the adsorption of CO on the
prepared adsorbents seems to be reversible. Further exploitation of the impregnated
activated carbon in pressure swing adsorption (PSA) experiments showed that
adsorption of carbon monoxide was higher with the impregnated carbon than in the
