Modelling the Desorption of Ethanol from an Externally Heated Saturated Activated Carbon Column by Purging with Air

The desorption of ethanol from an externally heated column loaded with activated carbon and purged with air has been studied. The column was initially saturated with liquid ethanol. This process simulates the regeneration step in a concentration-swing/thermal-swing adsorption process for the product...
