02E03 Adsorption from Mixtures
OverviewGood understanding of equilibrium and kinetics of mixture adsorption is vital to the reliable design of most industrial adsorption processes. Important issues in this respect are efficient experimental methods for the measurements of mixture equilibrium and kinetics, good experimental data and reliable prediction models. Abstracts are invited for oral presentation at this session related to the aforementioned important issues related to adsorption from mixtures.
