Abstract
Adsorption on activated carbon can be described by a isotherm founded on statistical thermodynamics. The basis of this treatment is the conception that adsorption takes place on active sites of the adsorbent. The proposed isotherm provides a satisfactory mathematical description of a wide range of concentrations and pressures, and the linearized presentation shows good agreement of measurement and calculation. This gives producers and consumers of activated carbons a chance of exactly characterizing this adsorbent. Recent inquiries indicate that the applied mathematical functions can be used with great success for the description of the distribution of a substance between two immiscible solvents (Nernst's law) and the solubility of gases in liquids (Henry's law).
