Both basic and applied aspects are presented. The first section of the book introduces physical adsorption and carbonaceous materials, and is followed by a section concerning the fundamentals of adsorption by carbons. This leads to development of a series of theoretical concepts that serve as an introduction to the following section in which adsorption is mainly envisaged as a tool to characterize the porous texture and surfaceCarbonAbsorption and adsorptionCarbon, ActivatedElectronic books.CarbonAbsorption and adsorption.Carbon, Activated.662.93Bottani Eduardo J937210Tascón J.
