VSM에 의한 단일기체 흡착등온선으로부터 혼합기체 흡착평형 예측
The Prediction of Binary Gas Mixture Adsorption Equilibria from Single Component Adsorption Isotherms Based on Vacancy Solution Model
본 연구는 VSM 이론을 이용하여 단일기체 흡착등온선으로부터 혼합기체 흡착데이타를 예측하고자 한 것이다. 제올라이트 5A 흡착제에 propane과 butane으로 등온 흡착실험을 하였으며 VSM에 의한 단일기체 흡착등온식에 있는 매개변수들(n1s,∞, b1, Λ13, Λ31)을 실험데이타에 의해서 비선형 회귀법과 최적화방법으로 구하였으며 이 매개변수들을 이용하여 시행착오법으로 혼합기체의 데이터를 예측하였다. 두 흡착질의 조성을 달리하면서 혼합물 흡착실험을 하였으며 실험데이타는 VSM 이론에 잘 부합하였다.
This study is to predict adsorption equilibrium data for binary gas mixture systems using the vacancy solution model(VSM). The single component adsorption isotherms of propane and n-butane on a 5A molecular sieves(Davison C-625) were determined experimentally and from these isotherms the parameters in a single component adsorption isotherm equation by the vacancy solution model(n1s∞, b1, Λ13, Λ31)were ca;ci;ated. A nonlinear regression method and an op-timization method were employed in the calculation of the parameters. The parameters were then used in the predic-tion of the binary gas mixture adsorption equilibrium curve through a trial-and-error method. The experimental mixed-gas adsorption data for varying composition of propane-n-butane mixture were in good agreement with the predicted equilibrium curve based on the VSM.
