Abstract
In this work a combination of static gravimetric and inverse chromatographic techniques is used to study the adsorption and separation of the main synthesis gas components ie CO2 CO CH4 and H2 The single component adsorption isotherms of CO2 CO CH4 and H2 on faujasite NaX were measured from 303 K to 473 K and over a large range of pressures from 0 to 1200 kPa Breakthrough curves of CO2 and CO and their mixtures were determined at 323 K and 373 K and 100 kPa as an illustrative example A nice agreement was noticed between the two abovementioned techniques for single component adsorption Binary mixture dynamics measurements were compared to the predictions of ideal adsorption solution theory IAST via the previously cited single component adsorption data
