Type of article: Article

Summary

THE ADSORPTION OF 2 DILUTE COMPONENTS FROM INERT GAS IN AN ADIABATIC FIXED BED IS CONSIDERED. THE ADSORPTION CYCLE IS OPERATED FOR RECOVERY OF BOTH COMPONENTS RATHER THAN TO SEPARATE THEM FROM ONE ANOTHER. CYCLES WITH 2 AND 3 STEPS ARE CONSIDERED. MULTIPLE, STABLE, PERIODIC STATES ARE FOUND. FOR A SINGLE HEATING TIME, 2 DIFFERENT ADSORPTION TIMES MAY EXIST, CORRESPONDINGTO DIFFERENT DEPTHS OF PENETRATION OF THE HEAVY COMPONENT INTO THE BED AT BREAKTHROUGH OF THE LIGHT CMON. THE SYSTEM STUDIED IS BENZENE AND CYCLOHEXANE ADSORBED FROM NITROGEN ONTO ACTIVATED CARBON.
