Abstract
The competitive adsorption isotherms of rac-1-phenyl-1-propanol on cellulose tribenzoate were measured by competitive frontal analysis. The experimental data were fitted to four different isotherm models: Langmuir, Bilangmuir, Langmuir-Freundlich, and Tóth. The fittings of the experimental data to all four models were satisfactory. It was excellent in the case of the Langmuir-Freundlich and the Tóth models. Overloaded elution profiles calculated with the Tóth isotherm were in good agreement with the experimental profiles in all the different experimental conditions investigated. This work extends to the case of binary mixtures the equivalence between the general rate and the lumped pore diffusion models already demonstrated for pure compounds when the ratio between the Stanton and the Biot numbers exceeds 5. The adsorption energy distribution for the Tóth isotherm was also calculated.I documenti in SFERA sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
