Abstract:Halogenated ethers, especially fluranes, are commonly
used as inhalation
anesthetics in medical treatment of humans and animals. As they pose
a health risk to clinicians and have a significant effect on global
warming, separation from indoor air in hospitals is desirable. This
paper presents adsorption isotherms for desflurane, isoflurane, and
sevoflurane at 25 °C on activated carbon D47/3 at 1 bar under
a dry and humid atmosphere. Trace level flurane concentrations between
50 and 500 ppm and relative humiditi… Show more
