ACTIVATED CARBON FIBER FOR THE REMOVAL OF ORGANOCHLORINE COMPOUNDS

摘要

The invention provides an activated carbon fiber which exhibits effective adsorptive removal performance against organochlorine compounds contained in fed water, that is, an activated carbon fiber for the adsorptive removal of organochlorine compounds, characterized in that the pore distribution as determined by alphas analysis on the basis of the argon adsorption isotherm at an liquid argon temperature satisfies the following three requirements: 1 the specific surface area of micropores is 700m2/g or above, 2 the specific surface area of mesopores is 30m2/g or above, and 3 the total volume of mesopores accounts for 10 to 70 % of the total volume of the all the pores.
