Abstract

Removal of isopropyl alcohol and isobutyl alcohol vapors from air by activated carbon was carried out. The equilibrium data for single component systen1s were obtained at different temperatures 301, 308, 319 and 327 K. The equilibrium data for binary system was found at temperature 319 K. The equilibrium isotherm results for single and binary components fit very well with Langmuir's isotherm. The effect of the inlet concentration on the dynamic capacity, MTZ velocity, MTZ length and thermal wave velocity was studied for single and binary systems. Empirical correlations describing these variables were determined. A mathematical model was used to predict the breakthrough curves and temperature profiles. These results were in good agreement with the experimental results.
