Abstract
A nonlinear lumped kinetic model of liquid chromatography is formulated and solved numerically to theoretically investigate the effect of column overloading on gradient elution. Linear solvent strength (LSS) model is utilized for Henry’s constant, non linearity coefficient and axial dispersion coefficient. A semi-discrete high-resolution finite volume scheme is extended and applied to obtain the approximate solutions of the governing model equations. The effects of changing modulator concentration are examined on the single and two-component elution. The benefits of gradient elution over isocratic elution are thoroughly discussed. The influences of optimizing free-parameters available in gradient chromatography are analyzed on the efficiency of the column and on the production of targeted components. For instance, the results obtained are used to study the effects of gradient slope, modulator concentration, solvent strength, nonlinearity coefficient, mass transfer coefficient, and axial dispersion coefficient on the concentration profiles.
