Prediction of multicomponent adsorption equilibria using ideal adsorbed solution theory

The degree of removal of synthetic organic Chemicals from drinking water or wastewater by granular activated carbon depends on the multicomponent competitive interactions of organic Chemicals that are present in solution. The capability of ideal adsorbed solution theory to predict multicomponent com...

Description
Summary:The degree of removal of synthetic organic Chemicals from drinking water or wastewater by granular activated carbon depends on the multicomponent competitive interactions of organic Chemicals that are present in solution. The capability of ideal adsorbed solution theory to predict multicomponent competitive interactions between the following organic Chemicals was tested: chloroform, bromoform, trichloroethane, tetrachloroethane, 1,2-dibromoethane, and chlorodibromomethane.
