I am trying to evaluate the adsorption behavior of a bio waste material and activated carbons using fixed bed continuous column where flow of the solution is from bottom to top rather than from top to bottom. Can we use same models in both cases?. I am looking for model to be fitted to the data obtained from such experiments. Suggest few models and relevant papers.
I saw your interesting question. But I can not help. I hope that one skilled in the field of knowledge can help you, because you need a professional answer.
I dont think you can solve through a model, but you may develop a model based on 1-type of sorbent
1-type of sorbent 2- type of target compounds,3-break through points, volume of the bed, void space, flow rate and gravity, temperature etc. I dont think you can find a model for that.
Thank You Dalal Husein, I read few other papers also and found that same models are being used for upflow as well as down flow columns.
Can you help me with papers that explain upflow and downflow models for fixed bed column?
