Abstract

Samples of coal and sorbents derived from coal are investigated by Raman spectroscopy. The results show that a three-dimensionally ordered carbon structure is obtained after carbonization of the initial coal. The sorbents are morphologically similar, regardless of the method of synthesis employed. The degree of graphitization is 12.9 ± 2%.
