Abstract
An equilibrium equation for pure component adsorption is compared
to experiments and to the vacancy solution theory. The
investigated equilibrium equation is a special case of a model for
prediction of multicomponent adsorption equilibria.The vacancy
solution theory for multicomponent systems requires binary
experimental data for determining the interaction parameters of
the Wilson equation; thus a large number of experiments are
needed. The multicomponent equilibria model which is investigated
for single component systems in this work is based on pure
component data only. This means that the requirement for
experimental data is reduced significantly.The two adsorption
models are compared, using experimental pure gas adsorption data
found in literature. The results obtained by the models are in
close agreement for pure component equilibria and they give a good
description of the experimental data. This indicates that the
method based solely on pure component data may be adequate for
prediction of multicomponent adsorption equilibria.
