Abstract

PURPOSE:To lower pressure drop and to sufficiently remove malodorous gases by using the metal oxide-attached active carbon formed by molding a carbonaceous raw material to a honeycomb shape, carbonizing the molding and activating the molding in an atmosphere of a specific steam content, then cooling the molding down to a specific temp. to deposit oxides contg. specific metals at a specific ratio. CONSTITUTION:The carbonaceous raw material is molded to the honeycomb shape and the molding is activated in the atmosphere of a steam content of <=15vol.%, and thereafter, the molding is cooled down to <=300 deg.C in this atmosphere, by which the oxides contg. one or more kinds selected from a group consisting of iron, chromium, nickel, cobalt, manganese, copper, zinc, magnesium and calcium are deposited at 0.1 to 20wt.% on the metal oxide-attached active carbon. Such active carbon is used as a deodorant. This honeycomb-shaped metal oxide-attached active carbon is formed to the honeycomb shape and is, therefore, extremely low in pressure drop. Since the catalyst has a high function as an oxidizing catalyst at ordinary temp. and low temp. as well, the catalyst has an excellent ability to oxidize and remove the malodorous gases, such as methyl mercaptan and trimethyl amine.

More specifically, the honeycomb-like activated carbon obtained by a specific method is treated under specific conditions and activated carbon containing one or more metal oxides is impregnated. Is used to remove odorous gases such as methyl mercaptan and trimethylamine.

2. Description of the Related Art A method for removing malodorous gases such as methyl mercaptan and trimethylamine by using activated carbon, an adsorbent impregnated with an acidic substance, or a deodorant in which a metal oxide is supported on a ceramic carrier is well known. When utilizing these adsorption effects, the life of the adsorbent is generally short.
In the case of a ceramic carrier, there is a drawback that the performance is poor and there are many side reaction products. In the past, powdery or granular activated carbon was mostly used as a carrier, and there was a problem that it was difficult to maintain a deodorizing function for a long period of time.

Further, according to the conventional method of impregnating the metal oxide to the honeycomb-shaped ceramics, it is difficult to increase the amount of the metal oxide to be impregnated because the specific surface area of the ceramic honeycomb as a carrier is small. No active metal oxide-supported activated carbon was obtained. Further, there is a problem that harmful odorous substances are easily generated by the side reaction.

For example, when used as a filter for deodorizing an indoor air purifier or a refrigerator, it has been unsuitable to use a conventional granular activated carbon impregnated with a metal oxide. This is because it is necessary to fill the column or container with activated carbon before use, and in this case the pressure loss is high and it was difficult to pass the gas at a high speed.

Therefore, when used in such a filter, a deodorizing method having a high performance and a low pressure loss, which can sufficiently remove a malodorous gas such as methyl mercaptan and trimethylamine even at a low concentration, has not been known.

In view of the above problems, the present invention removes a malodorous gas such as methyl mercaptan and trimethylamine, which is dilute at a low temperature, and therefore a pressure loss is caused even when the gas is passed through the oxidation catalyst at a high speed. Therefore, the present invention aims to provide a deodorizing method for indoor air purifiers and refrigerators by using a deodorizing agent having a high oxidation catalytic property and capable of sufficiently removing malodorous gas.

Means for Solving the Problems The present inventor can remove a malodorous gas such as methyl mercaptan and trimethylamine, which are dilute at a low temperature, and can be used in, for example, a refrigerator or an air purifier for indoor use, which has a low pressure loss and a catalytic property. Various studies were carried out on the honeycomb-shaped activated carbon supporting the excellent metal oxide.
As a result, the honeycomb-like activated carbon having a highly active deodorizing catalytic property produced through a specific process can be used for 10 to 40 ° C.
It was found that malodorous gases such as methyl mercaptan and trimethylamine at low concentrations of about ppm can be sufficiently oxidized and removed, and the method of the present invention was reached based on this.

The honeycomb-shaped activated carbon used in the present invention can use a wide range of carbonaceous raw materials such as palm shell coal and coal as carbonaceous raw materials. It can be obtained by adding a binder such as phenol resin, tar or pitch to these raw materials, molding and carbonizing into a honeycomb shape, and then activating by a specific method of the present invention.

At this time, the activating gas contains not only water vapor but also carbon dioxide gas, but the water vapor content must be 15% or less. The composition of the activated carbon activating gas that is usually used is 40-60% of steam, and in many cases it is higher than that. Since the rate of activation of carbonaceous matter by water vapor is remarkably faster than that of carbon dioxide gas, the composition of the activation gas is set so that the partial pressure of water vapor is as high as possible when ordinary activated carbon is produced. Therefore, the condition of the present invention is a mild condition in which the activation rate is remarkably slowed as compared with the usual method. Example 37,
38 and Comparative Examples 15 to 17, 18 to 20 and Tables 9 and 10, when activated under the condition that the water vapor content is high, the oxidation catalytic property of malodorous gases such as methyl mercaptan and trimethylamine is obviously high. You can see that it is decreasing. The details of the mechanism by which the activation condition with a low water vapor content improves the oxidation catalytic activity of activated carbon are not clear, but the honeycomb-shaped activated carbon obtained under such conditions is in a state where oxygen atoms bound to its surface do not exist. It is pointed out that there is.

The specific surface area of the activated carbon of the present invention is preferably 500 m 2 / g or more, more preferably 800 m 2 / g or more. The relationship between the specific surface area and the number of cells of the honeycomb activated carbon and the oxidation catalytic property is as shown in Examples 7 to 28 and Tables 3 and 4,
It can be seen that with respect to malodorous gases such as methyl mercaptan and trimethylamine, the larger the number of cells and the larger the specific surface area, the higher the catalytic activity.

Ordinary honeycomb-shaped activated carbon is produced by activating a honeycomb-shaped carbonaceous raw material in an atmosphere having a high water vapor content such as steam or combustion gas.
Even when such activated carbon is used in the present invention, it does not show sufficient oxidation catalytic properties. The effect of the present invention can be obtained for the first time by using the honeycomb-shaped activated carbon activated by the gas having the specific composition as described above.

When the activated carbon thus obtained is impregnated with a metal oxide, it exhibits a strong catalytic property for promptly oxidizing malodorous gases such as methyl mercaptan and trimethylamine. However, if the activated honeycomb-like activated carbon of the present invention is taken out of the system at a high temperature and left in an atmosphere containing a large amount of water vapor, hydrogen gas, or oxygen gas, the ability as an oxidation catalyst is significantly reduced.

Even after activation, it is necessary to cool the activated carbon to a temperature of 300 ° C. or lower under the same gas as the activation gas and then take it out of the system. The atmosphere during cooling may be nitrogen gas, carbon dioxide gas, or a mixed gas thereof (oxygen, hydrogen, and water vapor content not more than a specified amount) that can be used during activation of the activated carbon of the present invention, and it was used for activation of the activated carbon. The gas and the gas used for cooling do not necessarily have to have the same composition. In the present invention, "cooling in the same atmosphere" has the above meaning.

Further, in the present invention, waste honeycomb-like activated carbon whose surface is oxidized by exposure to air or the like to reduce its oxidation catalytic property, or honeycomb-like activated carbon produced by a usual method is used as a gas having the same composition as the above-mentioned activating gas. In the same manner as the above-mentioned honeycomb-shaped activated carbon, the honeycomb-shaped activated carbon obtained by treating at a temperature of 500 ° C or higher and cooling in the gas to a temperature of 300 ° C or less has a high resistance to malodorous gases such as methyl mercaptan and trimethylamine. It shows an oxidation catalytic property. In other words, this heat treatment gives the honeycomb-like activated carbon a high oxidation catalytic property. The honeycomb-shaped activated carbon to which this heat treatment is applied may be obtained from any raw material such as coal or coconut shell coal, and its shape is not particularly limited.

The amount of the metal oxide to be attached should be 0.1 to 20%.

When the supported amount of metal oxide is 0.1% or less, the catalytic activity is insufficient, and when it is 20% or more, the catalytic activity is not improved despite the large amount of impregnation, and the adsorption of activated carbon itself is hindered. Taking this into consideration, the amount of impregnation should be 20% or less. The amount of metal oxide supported is adjusted by changing the ratio of the amount of metal oxide in the aqueous salt solution and the amount of honeycomb activated carbon. Usually, the metal salt in the solution is almost completely adsorbed on the activated carbon. It can also be obtained by impregnating activated carbon with an aqueous solution of a metal salt having a predetermined concentration by a sprinkling method and then thermally decomposing it.
