Abstract:
The adsorption behavior of the ternary n-hexane/n-octane/n-tetradecane mixture and the binary n-hexane/n-octane, n-octane/n-tetradecane, n-hexane/n-tetradecane mixtures on the well-characterized TA 95 activated carbon has been studied. Measured binary data at 25 degrees C are used to predict the ternary data which are compared with measured ones. With the measured binary data at 15 degrees C, a prediction of ternary data is proposed without ternary experimental support. To predict ternary data from the binary ones, a thermodynamical model combining the methods of Myers and Price and Danner is used. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.
