The use of Sn-impregnated activated carbon for the removal of CO in PSA system

Inevitable increase of carbon monoxide (CO) in the atmosphere as a result of its emission from process gases,has remained a threat to the world ecosystem. It is then expedient to develop technologies to either eliminate or at least reduce the concentration of co to a minimum bearable level in ord...
