Notes:
The problem of multicomponent liquid phase adsorption in fixed beds was studied further. In contrast to the earlier work (Hsieh et al., 1977), the method developed in this work is more efficient and also has a greater scope of applicability as it incorporates the use of the IAS (Ideal Adsorbed Solution Theory) method for the estimation of multicomponent adsorption equilibrium data. It was shown that the use of the more complex IAS method for the prediction of the isotherm data does not present insurmountable obstacles as once feared (DiGiano, 1978) but provides much better prediction of carbon adsorption. An extension of the method to batch adsorption was shown to be straightforward and presented no special difficulty.
