Research > Adsorption and Adsorbents
This research area deals with adsorption as an important step in industrial processes. The use and texture properties of adsorbent solid compounds largely depend on their synthesis mode. Adsorption studies are also carried out with focus on the manufacturing processes of these materials and on the procedures which confer new properties to them. Current topics address :
study of active carbons for gas filtration : use of impregnated active carbon cloth in order to fix smelly gases nitrogen oxides adsorption on tin dioxide and DeNOx catalysis (nitrogen dioxides reduction) activation of paper mill sludge : European "COPCAS" program whose objective is to recover industrial waste through active carbon manufacturing.
