Abstract: High pressure adsorption of carbon dioxide on zeolite
13X was investigated in the pressure range (0 to 4) Mpa and
temperatures 298, 308 and 323K. The data fitting is accomplished
with the Toth, UNILAN, Dubinin-Astakhov and virial adsorption
models which are generally used for micro porous adsorbents such as
zeolites. Comparison with experimental data from the literature
indicated that the virial model would best determine results. These
results may be partly attributed to the flexibility of the virial model
which can accommodate as many constants as the data warrants.
Abstract: The peng-Robinson (PR), a cubic equation of state (EoS), is extended to polymers by using a single set of energy (A1, A2, A3) and co-volume (b) parameters per polymer fitted to experimental volume data. Excellent results for the volumetric behavior of the 11 polymer up to 2000 bar pressure are obtained. The EoS is applied to the correlation and prediction of Henry constants in polymer solutions comprising three polymer and many nonpolar and polar solvents, including supercritical gases. The correlation achieved with two adjustable parameter is satisfactory compared with the experimental data. As a result, the present work provides a simple and useful model for the prediction of Henry's constant for polymer containing systems including those containing polar, nonpolar and supercritical fluids.
