The adsorption characteristics of a single component and a binary component in the stationary phase using preparative chromatography were investigated with a six-adsorption isotherm model. These analyses were based on the Langmuir model. Each parameter of the adsorption isotherm was obtained with the adsorption raw data that was calculated by frontal analysis (FA). The experimental data and the values calculated using the adsorption isotherm model were compared. The bi-Langmuir model showed good agreement for phenol while the tri-Langmuir model showed good agreement for caffeine. Each characteristic of adsorption was obtained from these results. The effect of competitive adsorption was investigated using the parameters of the adsorption isotherm model with a single component. There was good agreement between the experimental data and the calculated values.
