Adsorption of a fluid in an aerogel: integral equation approach
We present a theoretical study of the phase diagram and the structure of a fluid adsorbed in high-porosity aerogels by means of an integral-equation approach combined with the replica formalism. To simulate a realistic gel environment, we use an aerogel structure factor obtained from an off-lattice diffusion-limited cluster-cluster aggregation process. The predictions of the theory are in quali...
متن کاملOptimization of Candida rugosa lipase immobilization parameters on magnetic silica aerogel using adsorption method
Magnetic silica aerogel in hydrophobic and hydrophilic forms were used as support to immobilize Candida rugosa lipase by adsorption method. Response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to study the effects of the three most important immobilization parameters, namely enzyme/support ratio (0.3-0.5, w/w), immobilization time (60-120 min) and alcohol percentage (20-40, %v/v) on the specific act...
متن کاملAdsorption of n-pentane on mesoporous silica and adsorbent deformation.
Development of quantitative theory of adsorption-induced deformation is important, e.g., for enhanced coalbed methane recovery by CO2 injection. It is also promising for the interpretation of experimental measurements of elastic properties of porous solids. We study deformation of mesoporous silica by n-pentane adsorption. The shape of experimental strain isotherms for this system differs from ...
متن کاملAdsorption of Phenol by Super Hydrophobic Phenol-Formaldehyde/Silica Hybrid Aerogel
Phenol-formaldehyde/silica hybrid gel with hydrophobic character, high porosity, and thesmall pore size mean was prepared via sol-gel polymerization under solvent saturated vaporatmosphere and was dried by ambient drying method. The silica sols were prepared based onTetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and Methyltrimethoxysilane (MTES) as hydrophilic and hydrophobicprecursors, respectively. Phenol-formalde...
متن کاملAdsorption and Desorption Isotherms Of Desiccants for Dehumidification Applications: Silica Aerogels and Silica Aerogel Coatings on Metal Foams
Silica aerogels are frequently employed as solid desiccants in enthalpy wheels for dehumidifying the supply stream in air-conditioning systems. These desiccant materials possess good moisture adsorption and desorption characteristics due to their porous structure. Analysis of adsorption and desorption isotherms is critical for performance characterization and is often performed to evaluate the ...
