Abstract
High calcium content peat was used for the preparation of activated carbons with CO 2 activation. The influence of temperature on the porous characteristics of the activated carbons was investigated. Calcium compounds were found to intensify the pore widening at high temperatures. As a result, the micropore volumes and surface areas of the samples prepared at 850 °C were lower than those prepared at 650 and 750 °C. As the mesopores were destroyed at high temperature, the total pore volume decreased at 850 °C and was lower than at 750 °C.
