Isosteric Heats of Adsorption on Carbon Predicted by Density Functional Theory

Abstract: Isosteric heats of adsorption (q st ) of propane and butane adsorbed on carbon were studied by numerical differentiation of nonlocal density functional theory (NDFT) isotherms. The q st values of both adsorbates in slit-shaped pores were a weak function of temperature, and decreased with increasing pore width. Using the calculated pore size distribution (PSD) of an activated carbon, it was further determined that the q st for both propane and butane decreased with increasing loading, consistent with a heteroge… Show more

“…It is also a crucial thermodynamic properties for the design of adsorption system to estimate the heat released (or consumed) during adsorption or desorption process. The values of the heat of adsorption (Q) can be determined either by varying the temperatures during adsorption process or by direct calorimetric measurements [26]. The parameter Q in Sips and Toth model is only the measure of the adsorption heat [21].…”

“…There are a wide range of theoretical approaches for modeling gas adsorption, from simple empirical fits (e.g., Freundlich isotherms [4]) to strong molecular theories based on molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations. The thermodynamics of adsorption phenomena have been discussed in detail in previous studies [5][6][7]. There are different theories for this purpose, such as the Gibbs isotherm, the treatment of Myers and Prausnitz, vacancy solution theory, Dubinin-Polanyi theory [5], density functional theory [6], and activity-coefficient-based models [7].…”

The simplified local density (SLD) model is a mean-field model that superimposes the fluid-solid (fs) potential on a fluid equation of state (EOS) [8].…”
