Abstract A number of control methods have been adopted for the removal of hazardous volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from gas streams, particularly adsorption processes which are considered more prominent in terms of feasibility, effectiveness as well as cost competence compared to other methods. In this study, most of the activated-carbon-based adsorbents are critically reviewed in terms of their advantages and limitations for VOC gas adsorption. The choice of adsorbent and process parameters depends mainly on the type of VOC used, its chemical and structural properties, in addition to the adsorbent’s characteristics. The review discusses in detail the application of fixed-bed adsorption systems. A computational simulation study using quantum-chemical conductor like screening model for real solvents is included in this review which determines the efficiency in describing and predicting the adsorption technique required for each process. This review offers a comprehensive discussion of the VOC adsorption techniques and their implementation for different applications.

The adsorption characteristics of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) on viscose rayon-based activated carbon fibres (ACFs) were investigated. ACFs with specific surface areas of 640 m2/g and 1460 m2/g were used to adsorb trace volatile organic compounds in nitrogen streams at atmospheric pressure at or near room temperature (25°C and 30°C). The experimental results showed that ACFs with different surface areas exhibited different dynamic adsorption behaviours at or near room temperature.
