The project aims to improve understanding of the adsorption mechanism of mercury removal from natural gas with porous carbon materials, by applying novel molecular simulation tools. An increasing number of Australian gas reservoirs have been found to contain higher levels of mercury than the specified safety, environment and product requirements. Although most of the current methods of mercury removal are based on adsorption technology, its development and use to full potential has been impeded by a lack of understanding. This project aims to investigate the fundamental mechanism of mercury removal from natural gas with adsorption methods at the molecular level. The project is intended to pave the way for optimal design of mercury removal systems.

该项目旨在通过应用新型分子模拟工具，提高对多孔碳材料从天然气中去除汞的吸附机理的理解。越来越多的澳大利亚天然气储层被发现汞含量高于规定的安全、环境和产品要求。尽管目前大多数除汞方法都是基于吸附技术，但由于缺乏了解，其开发和充分利用一直受到阻碍。本项目旨在从分子水平研究吸附法脱除天然气中汞的基本机理。该项目旨在为除汞系统的优化设计铺平道路。
