Abstract in brief

  • This article explains how intracrystalline diffusion affects the separation of mixtures in fixed bed adsorbers packed with microporous crystalline materials like MOFs and zeolites, focusing on how different diffusional influences can either work together or oppose each other to impact mixture adsorption.
  • Through experimental data, the study shows that the more mobile species can temporarily overshoot their expected loading levels inside single crystals, a phenomenon that can be accurately modeled using the Maxwell-Stefan diffusion formulation, which considers thermodynamic coupling effects—something the simpler Linear Driving Force model cannot capture.
  • The findings highlight that the key factors controlling breakthrough behavior are two parameters: a diffusional time constant and the gas-particle contact time, which together depend on the product of bed length, particle size, and gas velocity—this insight is crucial for designing and scaling up industrial adsorption systems.]
