Are there any requirements regarding the temperature for activated carbon adsorption?

Gentlemen: Can activated carbon adsorb and purify gases at 200~300°C? Does the adsorption capacity of activated carbon depend on the temperature of the gas?
Regarding the temperature for activated carbon adsorption, it is generally: below 60°; at 80°, the effect is essentially none; 120° is the temperature for regeneration. Specifically, you can consult the supplier of activated carbon. For your reference
Temperature must be very important for activated carbon adsorption; your gas should be cooled first before adsorption is carried out, which will result in a significant improvement in efficiency. You can give it a try.
No, generally the temperature at which activated carbon is used to treat exhaust gases should be below 40°C, as heat is also released during the adsorption process by activated carbon.
The exhaust gas entering the activated carbon adsorption bed should be kept below 40°C, and the temperature inside the adsorption bed should be below 83°C. When the temperature inside the adsorption unit exceeds 83°C, an automatic alarm should be triggered, and the cooling system should be activated immediately.
