Abstract
Adsorption equilibria for binary gas mixtures (methane-carbon dioxide, methane-ethane, and carbon dioxide-ethane) on the graphitized carbon black STH-2 were measured by the open flow method at 293.2 K. The experimental pressure range was (0 to 1.6) MPa. The extended Langmuir (EL) model and the ideal adsorption solution theory (IAST) have been adopted to predict the equilibria of binary gas mixtures. The results indicate that gas mixtures adsorbed on the homogeneous surface of STH-2 exhibit the nonideal behavior, which is mainly induced by adsorbate-adsorbate interactions. The real adsorption solution theory (RAST) has been used to analyze the property of the adsorbed mixtures. The activity coefficients have been correlated with the Wilson equation. The investigation demonstrates that the nonideality of adsorbed phase is completely dissimilar with the bulk liquid phase. The adsorption of the heavier component would benefit the adsorption of the lighter component.
