Resumen: | A series of activated carbon materials have been prepared from petroleum residue using KOH as activating agent. The gravimetric adsorption capacity for methane of the synthesized samples increases with the activation degree, albeit at a lower packing density of the carbon material. These results anticipate an optimum pitch/KOH ratio (1:3) to achieve an upper limit in the volumetric storage capacity. Activated carbon powders have been conformed into monoliths using a small amount of a binder (5 wt%), either carboxymethyl cellulose or polyvinyl alcohol, with proper mechanical properties. Incorporation of graphite or graphene in the initial formulation does not alter and/or modify significantly the textural properties of the original activated carbon. However, once conformed into monoliths, the presence of graphite or graphene allows to improve i) the packing density of the monoliths (up to 0.52 g/cm3), ii) their mechanical properties (compressive strength ≈ 12.3 MPa) and iii) their thermal conductivity (up to 0.49 W/mK) without compromising the methane storage capacity (ca. 100 V/V). |
