Acetylacetonates of Fe, Mn and V, and Cu nitrate were used as the sources of metals. The removal of a small amount of methyl mercaptan (CH3SH) in air with these activated carbons was tested in a flow system. Compared with activated carbons without metal oxides, the carbons exhibited high activity for the removal of CH3SH in air. In particular, activated carbon obtained from Novolac containing 5 wt% Cu showed excellent behavior over a long time.展开更多
