Abstract

To develop a porous structure of anthracites of Donetsk and Kuznetsk basins, two various approaches have been applied: high-speed heating of the grinded raw material in a fluidized bed of catalytically active material in the air flow and thermal treatment in a fixed bed under conditions of thermal shock of anthracite that was previously subjected to chemical treatment. The highest BET specific surface (653 m2/g) and the total pore volume (0.319 cm3/g) are attained at high-speed heating of anthracite that was modified by a mixture of nitric and sulphuric acids. The sorbent yield ranges up to 84 % from the mass of initial anthracite. The produced sorbent shows predominantly microporous texture; its sorptive capacity for iodine (71 %) is at a level of commercial active coals, the obtaining of which requires a long-term energy and resource extensive stage of steam-gaseous activation.
