1. A method for treating a porous carbonaceous material having a plurality of pores, the method comprising the steps of: placing the porous carbonaceous material in a vessel capable of sustaining pressure change, where the vessel has an original pressure;adding a treating liquid to the vessel;varying the pressure in the vessel using a vacuum to force at least part of the treating liquid into the pores of the porous carbonaceous material and then returning the pressure in the vessel to its original pressure or to atmospheric pressure;moisture adjusting the porous carbonaceous material in the vessel by at least partially drying the porous carbonaceous material;placing an additive in the vessel; andagain varying the pressure in the vessel using a vacuum to force at least part of the additive into the pores of the porous carbonaceous material and then returning the pressure in the vessel to its original pressure or to atmospheric pressure. 2. The method of claim 1 where during each pressure variation in the vessel the pressure reaches an absolute pressure of 10 Torr or greater. 3. The method of claim 1 where during each pressure variation in the vessel the pressure in the vessel is varied for a predetermined period before ceasing such pressure variation and returning the pressure in the vessel to its original pressure or to atmospheric pressure. 4. The method of claim 1 where the treating liquid is added to the vessel before the pressure in the vessel is varied. 5. The method of claim 1 where the treating liquid is added to the vessel while the pressure in the vessel is varied. 6. The method of claim 1 where the additive is added to the vessel before the pressure in the vessel is varied. 7. The method of claim 1 where the additive is added to the vessel while the pressure in the vessel is changed. 8. The method of claim 1 where the treating liquid contains water. 9. The method of claim 1 where the treating liquid adjusts the pH of the surface of the pores of the porous carbonaceous material. 10. The method of claim 1 where the additive is selected from the group consisting of water, liquid inorganic and organic compounds of different composition and polarity, water solutions of salts, water solutions of acids, water solutions of bases, water solutions of organic compounds, water solutions of inorganic compounds, liquid organic compounds, liquid inorganic compounds, solvents, mineral oils, organic oils, turpentine, olive oil, palm oil, mineral extracts, organic extracts, extracts containing organic compounds, extracts of inorganic compounds, slurries, suspensions, slurries comprising solid phases including inorganic oxides, hydroxides, salts, organometallic complexes, nano-dispersed solids, micro-dispersed solids, carbon-based clusters, and fine particles, and supercritical liquids. 11. A method for treating a porous carbonaceous material having a plurality of pores, the method comprising the steps of: placing the porous carbonaceous material in a vessel capable of sustaining pressure change, where the vessel has an original pressure;adding a treating liquid to the vessel;varying the pressure in the vessel to infuse at least part of the treating liquid into the pores of the porous carbonaceous material and then returning the pressure in the vessel to its original pressure or to atmospheric pressure;placing an additive in the vessel; andagain varying the pressure in the vessel to infuse at least part of the additive into the pores of the porous carbonaceous material and then returning the pressure in the vessel to its original pressure or to atmospheric pressure. 12. The method of claim 11 where a surfactant to added to the vessel to assist with the infusion of the treating liquid into the pores of the porous carbonaceous material. 13. The method claim 11 where the moisture in the porous carbonaceous material is adjusted by at least partially drying the porous carbonaceous material after infused with a treating liquid but before infused with an additive. 14. The method of claim 11 where the pressure is varied using a vacuum and where during each pressure variation in the vessel the pressure reaches an absolute pressure of 10 Torr or greater. 15. The method of claim 11 where during each pressure variation in the vessel the pressure in the vessel is varied for a predetermined period before ceasing such pressure variation and returning the pressure in the vessel to its original pressure or to atmospheric pressure. 16. The method of claim 11 where the treating liquid is added to the vessel before the pressure in the vessel is varied. 17. The method of claim 11 where the treating liquid is added to the vessel while the pressure in the vessel is varied. 18. The method of claim 11 where the additive is added to the vessel before the pressure in the vessel is varied. 19. The method of claim 11 where the additive is added to the vessel while the pressure in the vessel is changed. 20. The method of claim 11 where the treating liquid contains water. 21. The method of claim 11 where the treating liquid adjusts the pH of the surface of the pores of the porous carbonaceous material. 22. The method of claim 11 where the additive is selected from the group consisting of water, liquid inorganic and organic compounds of different composition and polarity, water solutions of salts, water solutions of acids, water solutions of bases, water solutions of organic compounds, water solutions of inorganic compounds, liquid organic compounds, liquid inorganic compounds, solvents, mineral oils, organic oils, turpentine, olive oil, palm oil, mineral extracts, organic extracts, extracts containing organic compounds, extracts of inorganic compounds, slurries, suspensions, slurries comprising solid phases including inorganic oxides, hydroxides, salts, organometallic complexes, nano-dispersed solids, micro-dispersed solids, carbon-based clusters, and fine particles, and supercritical liquids. 23. A method for treating a porous carbonaceous material having a plurality of pores, the method comprising the steps of: placing the porous carbonaceous material in a vessel capable of sustaining pressure change, where the vessel has an original pressure;adding a treating liquid to the vessel;varying the pressure in the vessel to force at least part of the treating liquid into the pores of the porous carbonaceous material and then returning the pressure in the vessel to its original pressure or to atmospheric pressure; andagitating the porous carbonaceous material while varying the pressure in the vessel. 24. The method of claim 23 where the treating liquid is added to the vessel before the pressure in the vessel is varied. 25. The method of claim 23 where the treating liquid is added to the vessel while the pressure in the vessel is varied. 26. The method of claim 23 where a surfactant to added to the vessel to assist with the infusion of the treating liquid into the pores of the porous carbonaceous material. 27. The method claim 23 further comprising the step of moisture adjusting the porous carbonaceous material by at least partially drying the porous carbonaceous material after infused with a treating liquid. 28. The method of claim 23 where the pressure is varied using a vacuum and where during each pressure variation in the vessel the pressure reaches an absolute pressure of 10 Torr or greater. 29. The method of claim 23 where during each pressure variation in the vessel the pressure in the vessel is varied for a predetermined period before ceasing such pressure variation and returning the pressure in the vessel to its original pressure or to atmospheric pressure.
