Visualization of the exothermal VOC adsorption in a fixed-bed activated carbon adsorber

Adsorption and Electrothermal Desorption of Volatile Organic Compounds and Siloxanes onto an Activated Carbon Fiber Cloth for Biogas Purification

“…For this purpose, infrared thermography was used 36 and confirmed that the temperature at the filter center was representative of all temperatures, as illustrated in Figure 4. In fact, when the temperatures were plotted along the horizontal and vertical lines, deviations below 10% were obtained.…”

Investigation of separate adsorbent particles under adsorption-desorption conditions with the use of infrared thermography and computer simulation

“…Nowadays, infrared thermography (IRT) attracts attention as an efficient tool for adsorption-desorption studies of porous materials [1][2][3][4], especially, of silica gels and zeolites. These studies help to optimize the gas purification and separation processes [4], and to improve monitoring and controlling fire and explosion hazards in the industry [3]. The fundamental problem, which should be solved here, is to obtain a further insight into the physics of processes occurring on the surface of materials with a developed inner structure, that, in turn, is important for applications to catalysis.…”

Convective heat transfer coefficient for the side‐wall in a fixed bed

“…PSA cycle productivity is curtailed on account of in situ temperature spikes induced during the exothermic adsorption step. [3,4] The randomness of the adsorbent material packing and the inlet flow distributor cause further agitation of the feed, leading to flow asymmetries within the bed. Preventing hotspots and thermal runaways is imperative to augment bed thermal performance.…”
