Title: Adsorption of certain chlorohydrocarbons by commercial active carbons in presence of water vapor

Journal Article · · J. Appl. Chem. USSR (Engl. Transl.); (United States)
OSTI ID:6938525

Attempts to develop a sufficiently accurate calculation method for the sorption of moderately adsorbable chlorohydrocarbons by active carbon have failed, even though the method is applicable to weakly adsorbed chlorohydrocarbons. From accumulated experimental data on adsorption of these moderately adsorbed chlorohydrocarbons by active carbons under process conditions, design calculations relating to gas purification plants can be made. The general relationship deduced from the accumulated data can also be used for approximate estimation of adsorption of these moderately adsorbable chlorohydrocarbons in the presence of water vapor by commercial carbons of similar types. 4 references, 4 figures.
