✦ Synopsis

A new method has been proposed for calculating apriori the equilibrium characteristics of adsorption of binary mixtures as functions of the structure of carbonaceous microporous adsorbents, and the temperature and adsorbabilities of the mixture components from vapor or liquid. The method uses the results of the theory of volume filling of micropores and stoichiometric theory of adsorption. Besides, the approach has been based on the properties of temperature invariability and similarity of the characteristic curves of the mutual replacement of the adsorption solutions components characterized by the same type of intermolecular interaction recently found by the authors. The calculations for many mixtures have been based on the experimental results at one temperature for one of the mixture on one of the adsorbents being compared and standard vapor adsorption isotherms on all the adsorbents. The results are in good agreement with the experiment which enables a purposeoriented selection of highly specific adsorption systems.
