Abstract

Abstract Granular activated carbon is produced from a waste tire pyrolysis residue by kneading homogeneously the residue, a wooden carbonaceous material, and a carbonaceous binder under heat, extruding the resulting mixture by an extruder under certain heating conditions, and carbonizing and activating the extruded material.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 123 words
A process for producing granular activated carbon from scrap tire pyrolysis residue which comprises homogeneously kneading at an elevated temperature a mixture of (A) (1) the scrap tire pyrolysis residue and (A) (2) a wooden carbonaceous material with (B) a carbonaceous binder, the ratio (A) (1) / (A) (2) being from 100/30 to 100/300 and the ratio of (A) / (B) being from 50/50 to 65/35, extruding the kneaded mixture from a cylindrical screw extruder having a temperature in the range from 60° to 200° C at the inlet cylinder surface and a temperature in the range of from 140° to 250° C at the outlet, cutting the extruded composition to a selected length, and carbonizing and then activating the cut extrusion product.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 123 words
A process for producing granular activated carbon from scrap tire pyrolysis residue which comprises homogeneously kneading at an elevated temperature a mixture of (A) (1) the scrap tire pyrolysis residue and (A) (2) a wooden carbonaceous material with (B) a carbonaceous binder, the ratio (A) (1) / (A) (2) being from 100/30 to 100/300 and the ratio of (A) / (B) being from 50/50 to 65/35, extruding the kneaded mixture from a cylindrical screw extruder having a temperature in the range from 60° to 200° C at the inlet cylinder surface and a temperature in the range of from 140° to 250° C at the outlet, cutting the extruded composition to a selected length, and carbonizing and then activating the cut extrusion product.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 40 words
A process for producing granular activated carbon according to claim 1, wherein (A) (3) a saccharide is added to the (A) component of the mixture and the ratio of (A) (3) is in the range of from 100/1 to 100/15.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 45 words
A process for producing granular activated carbon according to claim 1, wherein the wooden carbonaceous materials to be used as the (A) (2) component are selected from the class consisting of the carbonized materials of wood, straw, rice hull, paper mill waste and waste pulp.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 39 words
A process for producing granular activated carbon according to claim 1, wherein the carbonaceous binder to be used as (B) component is selected from the class consisting of coal tar, coal tar pitch, wood tar pitch, and rosin pitch.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 31 words
A process for producing granular activated carbon according to claim 2, the saccharide to be used as (A) (3) component is selected from the class consisting of oligosaccharide, polysaccharide and monosaccharide.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 34 words
A process for producing granular activated carbon according to claim 5, wherein the saccharide is selected from the class consisting of cane sugar, beet sugar, sucrose, starch, grape sugar (glucose) and fruit sugar (fructose).
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 35 words
A process for producing granular activated carbon according to claim 1, wherein the temperature at the inner surface of the cylinder case near the hopper is within the range of from 140° to 170° C.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 33 words
A process for producing granular activated carbon according to claim 1, wherein the temperature at the die or the position near the die is within the range of from 160° to 230° C.
