Abstract
- A homogeneous solid phase diffusion model (HSDM) has been developed using a computer to predict the performance of a batch adsorber. The computer program utilises a semi-analytical solution for a two resistance model based on external mass transfer and homogeneous solid phase diffusion. The model has been successfully applied to four adsorption systems, namely, the adsorption of AB25, AR114, BB69 and BR22 onto pith. The method produces excellent correlations between experimental and theoretical concentration decay curves in batch adsorbers. The model developed presents a solution using a single solid diffusion coefficient and a single external mass transfer coefficient which are sufficient to characterise the system within a range of initial dye concentration, 25–300 mg · dm3 and solid/liquid ratios (w/v) 0.25–2.
