The sorption capacity of fibrous activated carbon (FAC) can be raised four- to fivefold by introduction of salts capable of forming complexes with ammonia. The capacity of FAC depends on the nature of the added salt; the FAC capacity increases with decrease of the cation radius. The FAC studied have good kinetic sorption parameters and considerable capacity for ammonia; they can be regenerated by heat treatment and used repeatedly as sorbents.
