    Dynamic adsorption, in active carbon beds, of vapour mixtures corresponding to miscible and immiscible liquids
    (1999)
    Lavanchy, André
    ;
    It is shown that the combined Myers–Prausnitz–Dubinin theory (MPD) can be extended to the adsorption of ternary mixtures from an air stream. When combined with a computer model developed for dynamic adsorption, it provides a satisfactory agreement with the experimental breakthrough curves in active carbon beds. On the other hand, as illustrated by a mixture of water and 2-chloropropane vapours, MPD is no longer valid when the corresponding liquids are not miscible. In this case, binary adsorption can be described with a relatively good precision by assuming independent co-adsorption of the vapours. This, in turn, leads to satisfactory previsions for dynamic adsorption.

    Dynamic adsorption of vapour mixtures in active carbon beds described by the Myers-Prausnitz and dubinin theories
    (1997)
    Lavanchy, André
    ;
    The adsorption of binary vapour mixtures from air by active carbon beds can be predicted with a good accuracy by adapting a model developed earlier for single vapours. This model is based on a semi-implicit finite difference scheme. Multiple adsorption of vapours is described by the combined theories of Myers-Prausnitz and of Dubinin (MPD), which have already been applied successfully to static adsorption. A good agreement is found between the predicted and the experimental breakthrough curves of the systems 2-chloropropane + chlorobenzene and carbon tetrachloride + chlorobenzene on two activated carbons at 298 K and under different experimental conditions.
