Experimental determination of surface diffusion in porous adsorbent's pellets
The process of adsorption in spherical pellet of adsorbent for non-linear adsorption systems was considered. There was taken into account that mass transfer resistance appears both inside and outside the pellet. The inside mass transfer occurs as parallel mechanism of pore diffusion and surface diffusion. There was estimated the surface diffusion coefficient on the base of experimental kinetic curves.
