Four adsorption isotherms at 278, 288, 293, and 303 K of butane, 2-methylpropane, and 1-butene are obtained on activated carbon. The results at pressures up to 0.8P/P[sub s] are measured on an automated apparatus and correlated by the vacancy solution model of Cochran and Danner. This work aims at determining the influence of a double bond and a branched structure on the adsorption capacity. For their industrial separation by an adsorption process, it is important to have equilibrium data on the same adsorbent and at different temperatures.
