Adsorption of gas mixtures and gas/vapor systems – Breakthrough Curves
Breakthrough Curve Analyzer
The characterization of technical adsorbents in the form of powders or porous materials such as activated carbons or zeolites requires experimental conditions reflecting on the technical processes with regards to pressure, temperature, volumetric flow. In addition to our analytical instruments, we also offer a simulation software which enables the construction of mathematical models derived from experimental data.
mixSorb S Series | Measurement of breakthrough curves; vapor option; designed for very small sample amounts
The mixSorb S series provides unique capabilities to investigate novel materials, like MOFs, COFs etc. by mixed gas adsorption. Novel materials are in the focus of research in recent last years. These materials can have very high selectivities due to their extraordinary surface chemistry and have to be investigated by mixed gas sorption for a deeper understanding of their sorption behavior.
In contrast to the mixSorb L series, the mixSorb S series is designed for very small sample amounts (powders). Especially R&D groups have now the possibility to measure newly synthesized materials by complex dynamic sorption processes in a wide field of different gas- and gas/vapor-mixtures by using different parameters like pressure, temperature gas velocity/dwell times, cycle tests and much more. These experiments allow getting data, next to the effective adsorption performance, of kinetics, co-adsorption phenomenon or displacement effects, sorption selectivities, data of gas mixture adsorption and heat balance of the sorption process.
By using the available vapor option it is possible to work up to 2 completely independent evaporators to form fully automated and individually gas/vapor mixtures. These data allow a profound look at the co-adsorption phenomenon or displacement effects.
The related modeling software 3P sim made it possible to calculate and to modify pure gas isotherms as well as breakthrough curves and to calculate the behavior of gas/vapor-mixture equilibria.

mixSorb L Series | Measurement of breakthrough curves; vapor option; safe and easy-to-use bench-top instrument
The mixSorb L series provides unique capabilities to investigate arbitrarily complex dynamic sorption processes in a uniquely safe and easy-to-use bench-top instrument. Technical adsorbents such as zeolites, active carbons, silica gels, etc. can be investigated under authentic process conditions at a broad temperature (-20 °C to 400 °C) and pressure (up to 85 bar) range, with adjustable gas flow rates up to 40 L/min and well-defined gas compositions.
The mixSorb S series provides unique capabilities to investigate novel materials, like MOFs COFs etc. by mixed gas adsorption, especially for R&D.
