| abstract |
The present invention relates to activated carbons with improved mechanical properties. They can advantageously be used in the softening of petroleum fractions as an oxidation catalyst support in the conversion of mercaptans to disulfides but also in any other type of reaction, for example for the oxidation of cyanide contained in water or in the synthesis of glyphosate, as well as in purification and / or separation processes by selective adsorption in the liquid phase and / or in the gaseous phase (discoloration of food liquids, water treatment, air treatment, recovery of solvents, etc. .) |
