Previously reported data on CS2 adsorption by activated carbon

Type of material Reaction Adsorption capacity Temperature Source Reference
Zinc-carbon composite Batch reactor 124.3 mg of CS2/g 30 °C Hydrocarbon This work

Cu/CoSPc/Ce modified activated

carbon (ACCu‑CoSPc‑Ce)

Fixed-bed quartz reactor

system

Adsorption capacity of

17.39 mg of CS2/(g of activated carbon)

20 °C Gas (Wang et al. 2014)
Activated carbons Batch system

The adsorption capacity of CS2 in damp gas is 60%–80% less than that in dry

gas

50 °C Gas (Wang et al. 2011)
Active carbon fiber (ACF) Batch system

The adsorption capacity of ACF is

more extensive (72–104%) than that of GAC

150 °C Water (Yang et al. 2006)
Ion-exchanged zeolites Y Fixed-bed adsorption column

The highest

CS2 breakthrough adsorption capacity up to 44.8 mg/g

20 °C Air (Chen et al. 2017)
Polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-based activated carbon fiber (ACF) A fixed-bed glass reactor The best breakthrough adsorption capacity of CS2 was 55.63 mgS/g when CO activated the ACF Room temperature N2 gas (Li et al. 2020)
Hydrophobization of activated carbon fiber (ACF) using vinyltrimethoxysilane Glass vacuum system The adsorption selectivity is improved under humid conditions 25 ℃ N2 gas in dynamic conditions (Xie et al. 2011)
Activated carbon modified with KOH and ethylenediamine Glass vacuum system The CS2 adsorption is improved 30–60 ℃/0–30,000 Pa (Guo et al. 2006)
