Abstract
The oxygen trapped by metal on the carbon surface was measured in terms of the so-called flash desorption method by use of a Curie-point pyrolyzer. The steam gasification rate of the carbon supporting several alkaline metal salts was found to be proportional to the amount of the oxygen measured by the method. Furthermore, the moles of the oxygen trapped by metal on the carbon surface were found to be equal to the moles of metal supported.Keywords
