Abstract (en)

The possibility of microwave regeneration of granular activated carbon (GAC), synthetic zeolite (SZ) and natural zeolite (NZ) loaded with butyl acetate (BAc) and ethyl cellosolve (ECe) were investigated experimentally. The GAC, SZ and NZ were saturated with ECe and BAc in desicators and then regenerated by anodic regeneration. Increase in current strength from 210 mA to 300 mA, increased regeneration effectiveness. Lower current strengths require a longer heating duration, however allow to achieve similar results. The granules size has an influence on regeneration duration, but does not have any effect on the amount of volatile organic compounds (VOC) being adsorbed. Repeated regeneration cycles decreases the adsorption slightly towards the third – fourth adsorption-desorption cycle, further on it practically does not change or changes very slightly. The obtained experimental results showed that regeneration of adsorbents by use of inductive heating can be used on a industrial scale.
