A novel high-pressure system for multiple gas adsorption (2011–2012)

Abstract:
Multicomponent gas adsorption is a critical part of a wide variety of industrial applications including CO2 geosequestration, and pressure swing adsorption and temperature swing adsorption for gas separation and membrane technology. The BELSORP-VC can measure multicomponent gas adsorption isotherms up to 100 bar over a temperature range from 10 to 200 degree C identifying the adsorption capacity of up to 3 individual components. The instrumentation included in this proposal will provide a definitive state-of-the-art facility to adsoprtion reseach with strong application in clean energy areas such as CO2 capture and separation, hydrogen storage and oxygen separation from air etc.
