Abstract
The study of aluminium corrosion in contact with biogas before and after purification on different types of carbon aims to understand the impact of impurities present in biogas, in particular hydrogen sulphide (H₂S), on aluminium degradation. The study highlights the importance of biogas purification in minimising aluminium corrosion. Depending on the level of purification and the types of carbon used for filtering, it is possible to improve the durability of infrastructures in contact with biogas. This has direct implications for the maintenance and operating costs of facilities using biogas as an energy source. Hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) is a colorless, flammable and highly toxic gas characterized by an unpleasant odor. It is often present in industrial and natural environments, particularly in biogas. This gas is involved in the degradation of metals used in anaerobic digestion equipment, in the petrochemical industry, etc. The aim of this work is to study the performance of biochar and activated carbon prepared from corn cobs in removing H2S from biogas, and to evaluate the reduction of the corrosive effect of filtered biogas on metallic aluminum. The impregnation and carbonization method was used to prepare activated carbon from corn cobs, and the gravimetric method to study the corrosion rate of metal in biogas. The results indicate that the activated carbon prepared is microporous, has a good specific surface and a better adsorption capacity. Furthermore, the prepared activated carbon samples also showed good H2S removal efficiency in the biogas. The aluminum-induced protective power values in filtered biogas for biochar and activated carbon are 58 % and 82.22 % respectively. We plan to increase the contact time and experiment with other metals and carbons.
