Climate change, global warming, urban air pollution, energy supply uncertainty and
depletion, and rising costs of conventional energy sources are, among others, potential …

The use of NG in the transportation sector is becoming an appealing option to diesel and
gasoline fuels, presenting higher benefits. ANG technology offers a secure, cost-effective …

The effects of dry and wet oxidation treatments of activated carbon (AC) on the surface
chemistry and porous structure are studied. Using cherry stones (CS), AC was first prepared …

Natural gas, containing mainly methane (CH 4), has the potential to substitute petroleum as
fuel for vehicles. However, the storage of natural gas at adequately high densities to fulfil the …

We have measured the methane uptakes on HKUST (Copper benzene-1, 3, 5-tricarboxylate,
Cu-BTC MOF)-1 MOF (metal organic framework) for the temperatures ranging from 120 K to …

New kinetic promoters must be researched for hydrate formation suitable for natural gas
storage and transportation to push this technology towards economic feasibility. In this study …

Nanoporous carbon materials (NCMs) were widely used as commercial adsorbents, due to
their salient features like high specific surface area and a significant volume of micropores …

This work reports the synthesis and characterization of novel carbon materials obtained by
thermal activation in the presence of KOH of a sucrose-derived char. The effect of both, the …

The thermal stability of oxygen-containing functional groups on activated carbon surfaces in
a thermal oxidative environment was studied. The raw activated carbon (AC0) was rst …

Given its abundance and clean combustion, natural gas (NG) is one of the leading sources
of energy to meet present demands. However, the storage and transportation of NG remain …
