“…In this sense, we investigate one of the potential uses of the extruded clays monoliths as adsorbent for removal of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), together with the study of their structural and textural properties as well as their thermal behavior. Hence, the use of clays monoliths constitutes an attractive option, as most literature devoted to VOCs removal deals with activated carbon monoliths that have been extruded with additives [11][12][13][14] or free of binder such as those manufactured by MAST Carbon Ltd., UK [15]. Although activated carbon presents several disadvantages such as flammability risk and pore clog resulting form VOC polymerisation that can be catalyzed by ashes [16].…”

“…Yu et al [105,106] investigated the electrothermal swing adsorption (ESA) process with an activated carbon monolith (400 cpsi) as adsorbent for adsorption of toluene vapours. They showed that activated carbon monoliths behave as a semi-conductor and the resistivity decreases as temperature decreases and amount adsorbed increases.…”

a b s t r a c tIn this review, novel structured adsorbents for gas separation processes are discussed. General requirements are elucidated and illustrated with respect to specific structures such as monoliths, foams, laminates, and fabric structures. Geometrical parameters of adsorbents which affect the system performance are identified and discussed. It is clear that opportunities for improvement and optimization of adsorptive gas separation processes should include the development of improved structured adsorbents. These novel structures can fulfil many of the requirements of advanced gas separation processes such as enhanced mass transfer, reduced pressure drop, and improved thermal management.

“…CMs are attractive for applications in catalysis, biocatalysis, adsorption, as porous electrodes under a continuous flow condition and as chromatography columns. It was reported that a CM in the shape of a parallelepiped with longitudinal parallel channels has been used for the adsorption of toluene, a volatile organic compound [6]. Also, cylindrical CMs with square channels obtained from polyfurfuryl alcohol with Pt and Pd deposits were used for the removal of volatile organic compounds in a catalytic combustion process [7].…”

A carbon monolith with a silver coating was prepared and its antimicrobial behaviour in a flow system was examined. The functional groups on the surface of the carbon monolith were determined by temperature-programmed desorption and Boehm's method, and the point of zero charge was determined by mass titration. The specific surface area was examined by N 2 adsorption using the Brunauer, Emmett and Teller (BET) method. As a test for the surface activity, the deposition of silver from an aqueous solution of a silver salt was used. The morphology and structure of the silver coatings were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and x-ray diffraction. The resistance to the attrition of the silver deposited on the carbon monolith was tested. The antimicrobial activity of the carbon monolith with a silver coating was determined using standard microbiological methods. Carbon monolith samples with a silver coating showed good antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans, and are therefore suitable for water purification, particularly as personal disposable water filters with a limited capacity.
