Notes:
Activated carbon beds with adsorbed n-octane are regenerated using hot air. Effects of pressure, feed temperature, and initial loading on temperature and concentration breakthrough curves are studied. For moderate and high values of these variables, effluent vapors are found to be saturated with hydrocarbon during part of the heating step, indicating the presence presence of liquid within the bed. Regeneration behavior is predicted with reasonable accuracy using a nonisothermal stage model.
