“…30 Sitprasert et al investigated a similar competitive adsorption model on dual site adsorbent in heterogeneous carbonaceous porous media. 67 More recently the competitive adsorption of multicomponent CGMs on the growth mechanism was studied for the first time by Ferreira et al 68 In the present work, a multi-impurity adsorption model (MIAM) is developed based on a multicomponent, multisite, multifacet adsorption mechanism. The key steps of this mechanisms are shown schematically in Figure 3 where k = k 1 , k 2 , ..., k n is the different types of adsorption sites, j = j 1 , j 2 , ..., j n are the various crystal growth modifiers (impurities) and i = i 1 , I 2 , ...,i n is the different type of crystal facets present in the system.…”
