摘要

A PROCESS FOR MANUFACTURING A SORBENT MATERIAL FROM LIGNEOS MATTER OF VEGETABLE ORIGIN IN WHICH SAID RAW MATERIALS ARE FIRST HEATED TO A FIRST TEMPERATURE OF PREFERABLY 180°C IN A PRESSURE VESSEL WITH THE OUTLET VALVE OPEN FOR THE GASES AND CONDENSATION WATER TO ESCAPE, AND THEN HEATED AGAIN TO PREFERABLY 210°C WITH SAID OUTLET VALVE CLOSED FOR A PREDETERMINED TIME. THE REACTION THEREFORM ARE COOLED IN A COOLING DEVICE TO PREFERABLY 150°C FOR THE VOLATILES TO RECONDENSE ON RESULTANT REACTION PRODUCT WHICH IS THEN HEATED TO PREFERABLY 270°C WITH THE OUTLET VALVE OPEN TO ATMOSPHERE AND THEN COOLED AGAIN WITH THE OUTLET VALVE CLOSED TO ATMOSPHERE.(FIG. 1)
