Abstract

A carbon-based porous material microscopically exhibiting a three-dimension 1 cross-linked net-like hierarchical pore structure, a specific surface area of 500˜2,500 m 2 /g and a water contact angle greater than 90°. The surface of the carbon-based porous material has a through hierarchical pore structure with mesopores nested in macropores and micropores nested in mesopores, the content of mesopores is high, and there are more adsorption activity sites exposed on the surface of the material, so that the diffusion path for organic gas molecules in the adsorption process is shortened. At the same time, the absorption and desorption rates may also be accelerated and the desorption temperature may be lowered. Furthermore, benefits result for solving the desorption and recovery problems of organic gas molecules. Moreover, the defects of ordinary porous carbon materials being easily hygroscopic, having a weakened capacity to adsorb target gas molecules in a humid environment, etc. are further effectively solved.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1 . A method for preparing a carbon-based porous material, comprising:
(A) uniformly mixing a composition consisting of carbon powder, a starter culture, and water and then fermenting; (B) mixing the fermented product with water and a binder, and then crosslinking and curing the mixture; (C) shaping and drying the crosslinked and cured product; and (D) carbonizing and activating the dried product;
wherein the starter culture is starch;
wherein the conditions of the crosslinking and curing include:
temperature ranges from 50° C. to 100° C.; and time ranges from 20 min to 80 min;
wherein the dose of the starter culture is 8-18 wt % of the carbon powder;
wherein the conditions of fermentation include: a temperature of 10-40° C.; a fermentation time of 1-4 months; and an oxygen content of less than 10 vol %.

2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the carbon powder is at least one of coconut shell carbon powder, wood carbon powder, bamboo carbon powder, lotus root carbon powder, and straw carbon powder.

3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the dose of water is 1-3 times of the total weight of the organic matter and the carbon powder.

4 . The method according to claim 3 , wherein the dose of water is 1.5-2.5 times of the total weight of the organic matter and the carbon powder.

5 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the weight ratio of the product obtained through fermentation to the binder to the water is 100:5-20:10-35.

6 . The method according to claim 5 , wherein the weight ratio of the product obtained through fermentation to the binder to the water is 100:8-18:15-25.

7 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein, the activator used in the carbonization-activation is water vapor and/or carbon dioxide gas at 150-200° C., and, in relation to 100 g dried product, the dose of the activator is 10-100 g.

8 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the starch is at least one of mung bean starch, cassava starch, sweet potato starch, Spanish potato starch, potato starch, wheat starch, water caltrop starch, lotus root starch, and maize starch.
