Abstract
AbstractFlow of fluid through packed bed of porous particles is modelled with the help of Peclet number (Pe) and Biot number (Bi). Packed bed is divided into three zones, flowing liquor, intrapore solute present in pores of particles and solute adsorbed on particle surface. Langmuir isotherm is used to describe the relationship between intrapore solute concentration and concentration of solute adsorbed on particle surface, whereas the bulk fluid concentration and the intrapore solute concentration are related by linear adsorption isotherm. Model predicted values are also compared with the experimental values. (© 2008 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
