  2. Carbon nanotubes for water transport - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_nanotubes_for_water...

    The carbon-water interactions makes these wires the most favorable state, as long as the van der Waals forces stay above a certain level. [2] In the ideal wire formation, each water molecule’s dipole moment parallels the CNT axis, where it has the lowest potential. [ 1 ]

  3. Powdered activated carbon treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powdered_activated_carbon...

    Powdered Activated Carbon Treatment (PACT) is a wastewater technology in which powdered activated carbon [1] [2] is added to an anaerobic or aerobic treatment system. [3] The carbon in the biological treatment process adsorbs recalcitrant compounds that are not readily biodegradable, thereby reducing the chemical oxygen demand of the wastewater and removing toxins. [4]

  5. Carbon nanotube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_nanotube

    A carbon nanotube (CNT) is a tube made of carbon with a diameter in the nanometre range . They are one of the allotropes of carbon. Two broad classes of carbon nanotubes are recognized: Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) have diameters around 0.5–2.0 nanometres, about 100,000

  6. Carbon filtering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_filtering

    Carbon filtering is commonly used for water purification, air filtering and industrial gas processing, for example the removal of siloxanes and hydrogen sulfide from biogas. It is also used in a number of other applications, including respirator masks, the purification of sugarcane , some methods of coffee decaffeination , and in the recovery ...

  7. Copper tubing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_tubing

    Soft (or ductile) copper tubing can be bent easily to travel around obstacles in the path of the tubing. While the work hardening of the drawing process used to size the tubing makes the copper hard or rigid, it is carefully annealed to make it soft again; it is, therefore, more expensive to produce than non-annealed, rigid copper tubing.

  8. Colossal carbon tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colossal_carbon_tube

    Colossal carbon tubes (CCTs) are a tubular form of carbon. In contrast to the carbon nanotubes (CNTs), colossal carbon tubes have much larger diameters ranging between 40 and 100 μm. Their walls have a corrugated structure with abundant pores, as in corrugated fiberboard , where the solid membranes have a graphite-like layered structure.

  9. Timeline of carbon nanotubes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_carbon_nanotubes

    TEM images and diffraction data shows that the hollow tubes are multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT). 1976 – A. Oberlin, Morinobu Endo , and T. Koyama reported CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) growth of nanometer-scale carbon fibers, and they also reported the discovery of carbon nanofibers, including that some were shaped as hollow tubes.
