Abstract
This chapter is intended to provide a general introduction to the basic principles of adsorption equilibrium and kinetics, which is the focus of the present volume. The discussion of adsorption equilibrium (Sect. 2) includes a brief review of the many different expressions that are commonly used for correlation and prediction of equilibrium isotherms, with a short discussion of the underlying assumptions and approximations. Section 3 provides a short summary of diffusion in microporous adsorbents with emphasis on the phenomenological behavior and the generalized Maxwell–Stefan theory. Representative examples of the practical importance of micropore diffusion in zeolite-based adsorption separation and catalytic processes are presented in Sect. 4.
