Process for the production of activated carbon, which comprises the stages of carbonizing the starting material and activating the carbonized material. Water and/or carbon dioxide in the supercritical state are employed, as activating agents, in the activation stage of the carbonized material.

Process and apparatus for the production of activated carbon

Procedure for the regeneration of catalysts and adsorbent materials, which comprises the thermal desorption of adsorbed substances, with water in liquid condition, at high temperature or with water in supercritical condition, without oxidizing agents.

Procedure for the regeneration of catalysts and adsorbent materials

Method and apparatus for thermal desorption wherein a carrier liquid is circulated around a desorption chamber when a sample to be desorbed in heated, whereby the desorbed substance is dissolved into the carrier liquid for transport to a region where the substance is analyzed. The carrier liquid circulation is performed at high pressure sufficient to maintain the carrier liquid in the liquid phase during heating of the sample.
