Item Utilization of sugar beet pulp by getting activated carbon(Publishing House of Lviv Polytechnic National University, 2017) Bordun, Igor; Ptashnyk, Vadym; Sadova, Maria; Chapovska, Roksolana; Lviv Polytechnic National University; Lviv National Agrarian UniversityThe formation and properties of sugar beet pulp have been analysed in the article. It has been proposed to use it as raw material to produce activated carbon. A better hydrophilicity of the obtained carbon in comparison with the samples of industrial production has been shown. Structural features and a porous structure of carbon made of sugar beet pulp have been analysed by X-ray diffraction and small angle scattering methods. It has been found that pores with average radii of inertia of 3.5 nm make the main contribution to the pore structure.
