Meticulously prepared, this reference offers an overview of achieved in gas-solid (G/S), liquid-solid (L/S), and gas-liquid (G/L) adsorption research. It emphasizes the interpretation and application of various hypotheses, providing mathematically and thermodynamically accurate assessments. The book covers how to calculate mono - or multilayer adsorption, the structure of an adsorbed layer, the kinetics of each process, changes in free energy of surface, and exact isotherm equations when measuring a G/L, G/S, or L/S isotherm. Other topics include rare-gas adsorption, "supercritical region" iso

Nanoporous materials are used widely in industry as adsorbents, particularly for applications where selective adsorption of one fluid component from a mixture is important. Nanoscale structures are of increasing interest for micro- and nanofluidic devices. Computational methods have an important role to play in characterizing, understanding, and designing such materials. Adsorption and Transport at the Nanoscale gives a survey of computational methods and their applications in this burgeoning field.Beginning with an overview of adsorption and transport phenomena at the nanoscale, this book det

Adsorption: it’s the most important method for removing organic contaminants from wastewater streams. Students and professionals alike in the fields of water/wastewater treatment and environmental engineering have expressed tremendous interest in learning and understanding adsorption processes.Adsorption Design for Wastewater Treatment fulfills the need for a true textbook on this increasingly important subject . From the basics of the adsorption process to specifics on system design, this overview serves a dual purpose: study manual and design guide.Straightforward explanations and illu

This book covers the most significant aspects of adsorption by carbons, attempting to fill the existing gap between the fields of adsorption and carbonaceous materials. Both basic and applied aspects are presented. The first section of the book introduces physical adsorption and carbonaceous materials, and is followed by a section concerning the fundamentals of adsorption by carbons. This leads to development of a series of theoretical concepts that serve as an introduction to the following section in which adsorption is mainly envisaged as a tool to characterize the porous texture and surface

Pressure Swing Adsorption is the first book that provides a coherent and concise summary of the underlying science and technology of pressure swing adsorption (PSA) processes at a level understandable to the practising engineer. PSA has achieved widespread commercial acceptance as the technology of choice for hydrogen purification, air separation and small scale air driers. However, PSA has numerous other actual and potential uses such as the recovery of methane from landfill gas, the production of carbon dioxide and other large scale applications. Since the design and optimization of a PSA

Principles of Adsorption and Reaction on Solid Surfaces As with other books in the field, Principles of Adsorption and Reaction on Solid Surfaces describes what occurs when gases come in contact with various solid surfaces. But, unlike all the others, it also explains why. While the theory of surface reactions is still under active development, the approach Dr. Richard Masel takes in this book is to outline general principles derived from thermodynamics and reaction rate theory that can be applied to reactions on surfaces, and to indicate ways in which these principles may be applied.
