Abstract
⺠Coconut shell based carbons were chemically treated by alkalis and acids. ⺠GAC modified by alkalis had better o-xylene adsorption capacity. ⺠We analyzed textural and surface chemistry changes induced on the GAC. ⺠Reducing hydrophilic carbon surface favors abatement of hydrophobic VOCs. ⺠Reducing hydrophilic carbon surface results in less adsorbent regeneration.
