Abstract

AbstractPure‐component equilibrium data for nitrogen, oxygen, and argon, and multicomponent equilibrium data for air in 20 × 40 mesh 5A molecular sieve were measured at 297.15, 233.15, and 203.15 K and up to pressures of 4 bar. The multicomponent data were analyzed by a statistical thermodynamic model, ideal adsorbed solution theory, an extended Langmuir‐Sips equation, and an extended Langmuir equation. The multicomponent system exhibited nonideal behavior at 233.15 and 203.15 K. Isotherm parameters determined in this work may be useful in the design and evaluation of molecular sieve air separation systems.
