Dual-reflux pressure swing adsorption (DR-PSA) is a state-of-art technology claiming to achieve both high product purity and recovery. However, its performance inevitably limited by the gas mixing problem at feed inlet position in columns, where discontinuity columns' axial concentration profiles disturbs separation. Here, we developed dynamic-feed DR-PSA (DF-DR-PSA) process solve obtain better...

adsorption of co2 on the surface of single-wall zigzag (5,0) and armchair (4,4) carbon nanotubes (swcnts) were studied through using density functional theory (dft) calculations. optimizations of geometric were performed at the b3pw91 level of 6-311++g** method standard basis set using gaussian 03 package of program [1]. structural models were optimized and adsorption energies, band gap, charge...

an agricultural waste i.e. rice husk has been used as a cheap adsorbent for the removal ofleadas a harmful heavy metal from contaminated water via adsorption. the adsorption capacity of rice husk was calculated by equilibrium models. the results showed that the adsorption process has the best accordance with langmuir model. the kinetics of the adsorption was also investigated and obtained that ...

The main objectives of this study were to remove surface-active agents and to predict the adsorption rejection models.  The effects of surfactant concentration and PAC amount on the adsorption were determined. For both surfactants, It was found that the adsorption values also increased when PAC amount increased. It was observed that the rejection values are different for the adsorption of C...

Low-pressure high-resolution hydrogen adsorption for the metal-organic framework MIL-101 are measured at 19.5 K and pressures below 57 kPa. The BET specific surface area and micropore volume are determined and compared to results from nitrogen adsorption at 77 K. Steps in the hydrogen adsorption isotherm are correlated to the pore structure of MIL-101.

This paper introduces a new approach to controlling Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) using neural network controller based on Model Predictive Control (MPC) process. We use Hammerstein–Wiener (HW) model representing the real PSA process data. Then, we design an MPC-controlled HW maintain bioethanol purity near 99% molar fraction. work proposes Artificial Neural Network (ANN) that captures dynami...

The present research describes the performance of NiO NPs/Ag-clinoptilolite composite adsorbent for the removal of uranium (U(VI)) ions from drinking water of Dezful city-Iran. Prior to the experiment reactions, Na-clinoptilolite was chemically treated with NaCl, Silver ions (Ag+) and subsequently Nickel (NiO) NPs to prepare NiO NPs/Ag-clinoptilolite. The samples were characterized by SEM, AAS,...
