Nickel(II) Ion Adsorption onto Activated Carbon. Relationship between Physicochemical Properties and Adsorption Capacity by Paola Rodríguez-Estupiñán, Liliana Giraldo, Juan Carlos Moreno-Piraján

“…Thus, GAC was heat-treated at 900 °C (GAC 900), oxidized with HNO 3 (GACox), and this material subsequently heat-treated in an inert atmosphere at 450 °C and 750 °C (GACox 450 and GACox 750), all with the objective of changing the total acidity of the samples and demonstrating its influence on the adsorption capacity. The solids were characterized by N 2 and CO 2 adsorption isotherms from which the micropore volumes and surface areas were calculated — the latter being between 816 and 935 m 2 /g. …”
