Adsorption onto activated carbon is the most widely used technology to remove harmful volatile compounds, such as siloxanes. However, the competition for the adsorptive sites with other biogas impurities reduces the performance of the adsorbents increasing the operative costs. This work studies the competitive adsorption of volatile organic compounds and siloxanes into activated carbons of different sources and activation processes. Ten selected materials were exhaustively characterized in terms of textural and chemical properties. Dynamic competitive adsorption tests displayed different equilibrium uptakes for each target compound depending on the properties of each carbon type. Chemically activated carbons demonstrated a higher adsorption capacity and higher selectivity for bulky siloxanes, being the most suitable adsorbents for biogas upgrading. The performance of the adsorbents was also investigated in the presence of moisture, which enable siloxane hydrolysis reactions in the carbon surface, leading to the formation of \u03b1-\u03c9-silanediols, especially on phosphoric acid-activated carbons. The technical implications of this work are discussed in terms of biogas volume treated per volume of adsorbent at the first siloxane breakthrough. Phosphoric acid activated carbons are capable of treating higher number of bed volumes, reducing the costs associated to the adsorbent replacement.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-3451c76e ts-col-stretched-none ts-bg-color-over-image elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"3451c76e\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-45f2e9d6 ts-bg-color-over-image\" data-id=\"45f2e9d6\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5b24d7c5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-accordion\" data-id=\"5b24d7c5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"accordion.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-accordion\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-accordion-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-1521\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"1\" role=\"button\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1521\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon elementor-accordion-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-closed\"><i class=\"fas fa-plus\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-opened\"><i class=\"fas fa-minus\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-accordion-title\" tabindex=\"0\">Informaci\u00f3 addicional<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1521\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"1\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1521\"><table style=\"border: hidden;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #efefef;\">\n<td align=\"right\" width=\"200\"><strong>Year:<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>2018<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #efefef;\">\n<td align=\"right\" width=\"200\"><strong>Authors:<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Cabrera-Codony, A., Santos-Clotas, E., Ania, C.O., Mart\u00edn, M.J.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #efefef;\">\n<td align=\"right\" width=\"200\"><strong>Reference:<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Chemical Engineering Journal Volume 344, 15 July 2018, Pages 565-573<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #efefef;\">\n<td align=\"right\" width=\"200\"><strong>Link:<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><a href=\"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1016\/j.cej.2018.03.131\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1016\/j.cej.2018.03.131<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4ac566e elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"4ac566e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Authors: Cabrera-Codony, A., Santos-Clotas, E., Ania, C.O., Mart\u00edn, M.J.
