Thermodynamics of adsorption in porous materials

Myers, A. L.·2002·AIChE Journal

Abstract

Thermodynamic equations are developed for adsorption of multicomponent gas mixtures in microporous adsorbents based on the principles of solution thermodynamics. The conventional spreading pressure and surface area variables, which describe 2‐D films, must be abandoned for adsorption in micropores, in which spreading pressure cannot be measured experimentally or calculated from intermolecular forces. Adsorption is divided into two steps: (1) isothermal compression of the gas, (2) isothermal immersion of clean adsorbent in the compressed gas. Thermodynamic functions (Gibbs free energy, enthalpy, and entropy) from solution thermodynamics provide a complete thermodynamic description of the system. Applications are described for characterization of adsorbents, gas storage at high pressure, mixture adsorption, enthalpy balances, molecular simulation, adsorption calorimetry, and shape selectivity in catalysis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
