Porosi ty is usually defined as the ratio of thevolume of pores and voids to the volume occupied
by the solid.
In many cases the internal sur face area ismuch larger than the externalsu rface area andthe agglomerate then possesses a well-definedpore structure.

ACTIVATED Carbon pores consist of:1. Micro pores with a radius of less than 1 nm (small pores)
2. Meso pores with a radius of 1-25 nm (medium pores)3. Macro pores with a radius larger than 25 nm (largepores)
Large pores are used for the transport of liquid throughthe carbon, and absorption occurs in the medium andsmall pores. Pores are formed during themanufacturing process, when the carbon is activated.
The activation basically means that pores are created ina non-porous material by means of chemical reactions.

These materials have a highdegree of cross-linking,
preventingthem from swelling in solvents.Pores are larger than gels,but are irregular and terminateinside the matrix. Total porevolumes are typically 50%.

BET ADSORPTION ISOTHERMS
Assumptions:
Multiple layers form and langmuir model applies toeach layer.
Heat of adsorption, Hads for first layer has a valuedetermined by properties of surface and adsorbate,but for second and all subsequent layers, it is equalto heat of vapourization H vap.
Evaporation (or desorption) only occurs fromexposed surfaces.Rate of evaporation is equal to rate of condensationon preceding layer.

COMMERCIAL SORBENTS AND APPLICATIONSOnly four types of generic sorbents havedominated the commercial use of adsorption:
activated carbon, zeolites, silica gel, and activatedalumina. Estimates of
worldwide sales of these sorbents are (Humphreyand Keller, 1997)
Activated carbon $1 billionZeolites $100 million
Silica gel $27 millionActivated alumina $26 million
