Abstract
A carbon monolith can include a plurality of carbon fibers fused together to form the carbon monolith. The plurality of carbon fibers are melt blown carbon fibers fused together at contact points. Each carbon fiber of the plurality of carbon fibers comprises a longitudinal resistivity of between about 1.5 μΩm and about 20 μΩm.
Claims20
A method for separating components of a fluid stream, comprising:
- making an activated carbon fiber;
- forming a carbon monolith by fusing a plurality of activated carbon fibers together;
- disposing the carbon monolith within a fluid stream;
- and
- capturing at least one component of the fluid stream with the carbon monolith.
2 more elements
A method of storing a gas comprising:
- disposing a plurality of activated carbon fibers fused together to form a carbon monolith within a storage vessel;
- and
- filling the storage vessel with a gas, wherein the carbon monolith adsorbs at least a portion of the gas.
