Adsoprtion and adsorptive separations: A bibliographical update (1992–1993)

Abstract

This article provides a bibliographic listing of published journal papers concerned with adsorptive separations during 1992–1993. The references are taken from the 40 most important chemical engineering journals. This paper provides an update to the literature as provided in previous bibliographic papers [1, 2]. These previous papers also included membrane-type separations, however due to the number of papers and the diversity of membrane and associated processes, this material is to be published separately [3].

Other bibliographic papers covering the more traditional unit operations, e.g. distillation [4], and equilibrium-staged separations in general [5, 6] have been published. Liquid-liquid extraction [7] is the subject of a separate bibliography (for 1992–1993), due to the number of publications on this topic. A bibliography detailing supercritical extraction from 1980–1993 is also to be published separately due to the current interest in this relatively new technology [8]. A complete bibliography of the chemical engineering journal literature from 1967–1993 has been published by the author [9–12]. An earlier bibliography [13] provides access to the literature prior to 1967.
