Numerical Simulation of Gasoline Vapor Adsorption

Article Preview

Abstract:

The process of gasoline vapor adsorption by an activated carbon or a silica gel was simulated using Aspen Adsorption Simulation software and the adsorption isothermal model of the expanded Langmuir. Meanwhile, an experiment of the dynamic adsorption of gasoline vapor was designed. Two key parameters in the dynamic adsorption process, i.e., the vapor concentration from the adsorption bed and the temperature change in the bed, were calculated and ,measured, respectively. The simulation results agreed well with the experimental data. This showed that the simulation method using the adsorption isothermal model is suitable for the research and design of gasoline vapor adsorption process.
