“…This approach has been applied to investigate adsorption of different light gases in activated carbons, including CO 2 , N 2 , CH 4 and H 2 O, as well as binary and ternary mixtures (Cracknell et al., 1996; Heuchel et al., 1999; Jagiello and Schwarz, 1993; Kaneko et al., 1994; Lithoxoos et al., 2012; McCallum et al., 1998; Samios et al., 1997; Silvestre-Albero et al., 2012; Sweatman and Quirke, 2001). Many variants of the slit pore model have been developed over the years to incorporate various sources of heterogeneity in the structure, including walls of finite size and pores of finite length, surface groups, defects and so on (Brennan et al., 2002; Coasne et al., 2006; Do and Do, 2006; Gotzias et al., 2012; Jagiello and Olivier, 2009; Jorge et al., 2002; Jorge and Seaton, 2003; Kandagal et al., 2012; Liu and Wilcox, 2012; Lucena et al., 2010; McCallum et al., 1998; Müller et al., 1996; Vishnyakov et al., 1998; Wongkoblap and Do, 2006, 2007). The principal challenge in application of this approach is the reliability and realism of the PSD.…”
