Adsorption Energy Distribution Model for VOCs onto Activated Carbons

Adsorption characteristics of acetone, chloroform and acetonitrile on sludge-derived adsorbent, commercial granular activated carbon and activated carbon fibers

“…The adsorption energy was in the range of this study. The adsorption energy of acetone in this study was also similar to other measurements in the literature [25][26][27]. A low adsorption characteristic energy was measured for F2, which may be attributed to the fact that adsorbates are more easily sorbed on carbon fiber.…”

Adsorption of butyl acetate in air over silver-loaded Y and ZSM-5 zeolites: Experimental and modelling studies

“…It has been observed that at higher gas flow rate, longer time is needed to reach the steady-state concentration under identical operating conditions. This indicates the overall drop in the adsorption rate at higher flow rate [6,7]. A more detailed analysis has revealed that the heat of adsorption varies strongly with VOC concentration range [8].…”

Surface modification of coconut shell based activated carbon for the improvement of hydrophobic VOC removal

“…Due to their developed high surface area, porous structure, and high degree of surface reactivity, activated carbons have been the most widely used adsorbent in the purification of organic compounds with intermediate molecular weights (typically about 45-130) from gases and vapors. Previous research has already investigated adsorption of monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, such as toluene, benzene, and xylene [1][2][3][4][5][6], 1,1-dichloroethane and chloroform [7] and other organic materials [8][9][10][11][12][13][14].…”
