The adsorption of 1, 1, 1-trichloroethane (MC), one of the volatile chlorinated hydrocarbon, onto activated carbon fibers (ACFs) in gaseous phase was investigated. The adsorption capacities of ACFs were large according to their grade number. The amount adsorbed was large at lower temperature, so that the adsorption of MC onto ACF was considered to be aphysical ad-sorption.
Applying the Duhinin-Radushkevich (D-R) equation to the adsorption isotherms, ACF could be classified into 2 types. There is a difference concerning the adsorption sites of MC in both types, and the difference is considered to be due to the pore size distributions of ACFs.
