Diffusion in multicomponent gas adsorption on MSC5A, chromatographic study
1. Introduction The combination of chromatographic method and moment analysis of the response peaks is one of the useful techniques to study adsorption equilibrium and adsorption rate. Perturbation chromatography with the mixed multi component adsorbate gas carrier (two adsorbates) has been applied to several studies on adsorption. In this work, perturbation chromatography with multi component gas carrier (two adsorbates with inert gas) and non-equilibrium thermodynamics liner law was applied for discussion of the interference effect and the displacement effect (those are cross effects) on mass transfer in multi component gas adsorption. Moment analysis method and stop & go simulation method were utilized to obtain each mass transfer parameters of adsorbate gases. Dependency of micropore diffusion on amount adsorbed and correlation of micropore diffusion with chemical potential driving force for microporous adsorbent were discussed. Also, cross effect were discussed. Ruthven already pointed the dependency of micropore diffusivity on amount adsorbed in single component adsorption. Tondeur et al gave general background on multi component perturbation chromatography for the first moment only.
Adsorption rate on molecular sieving carbon by chromatography
Diffusivities in the micropore and adsorption equilibrium constants were determined for neon, argon, krypton, xenon, nitrogen, methane, ethylene, ethane, propylene, propane, n-butane, and benzene on molecular sieving carbon by chromatographic measurement and moment analysis. Isosteric heat of adsorption was found to be 2.6 times heat of vaporization for the gases examined here. Two separate linear relations were obtained between activation energies of diffusion in micropore and isosteric heats of adsorption for rare gases, methane, and benzene, and for n-paraffin and n-olefin except methane.
Mechanics of deformable directed surfaces
Abstract The paper develops a simple, yet complete and consistent non-linear dynamic thermo-elastic shell theory based on the concepts of a two-dimensional directed continuum. The constitutive equations are postulated in a general form. Stress-strain relations are derived using the equation of energy balance and the two entropy production inequalities, which are rewritten in a special form. The linear theory is discussed in detail. The structure of the stress-strain relations is presented in the most general form and then specialized to concrete examples, in particular, to the classical shell theory, using their invariance properties with respective to certain symmetry groups. The elastic moduli are determined by demanding the coincidence of the frequency dispersion surfaces obtained using the two-dimensional theory with the lowest foils of the corresponding surfaces resulting from the three-dimensional theory of elasticity.
