Adsorption promises to play an integral role in several future
energy and environmental technologies, including hydrogen storage,
CO removal for fuel cell technology, desulfurization of
transportation fuels, and technologies for meeting higher standards
on air and water pollutants. Ralph Yang’s Adsorbents provides a
single and comprehensive source of knowledge for all commercial and
new sorbent materials, presenting the fundamental principles for
their syntheses, their adsorption properties, and their present and
potential applications for separation and purification. Chapter
topics in this authoritative, forward-looking volume include:
– Formulas for calculating the basic forces or potentials for
adsorption
– Calculation of pore-size distribution from a single adsorption
isotherm
– Rules for sorbent selection
– Fundamental principles for syntheses/preparation, adsorption
properties, and applications of commercially available
sorbents
– Mesoporous molecular sieves and zeolites
-¸-complexation sorbents and their applications
– Carbon nanotubes, pillared clays, and polymeric resins
Yang covers the explosion in the development of new nanoporous
materials thoroughly, as the adsorption properties of some of these
materials have remained largely unexplored. The whole of this book
benefits from the new adsorbent designs made possible by the
increase in desktop computing and molecular simulation, making
Adsorbents useful to both practicing laboratories and graduate
programs. Ralph Yang’s comprehensive study contributes
significantly to the resolution of separation and purification
problems by adsorption technologies.
