Conclusions
-- Results have been given of a study of the process of recovery of acetone and toluene vapor by a fibrous-granular carbon tower consisting of activated carbon fibre of the AktilenR type and granular activated carbon.
-- It has been found that such a tower permits one to increase the degree of utilization of the adsorptive capacity of the adsorbents with respect to the less well sorbed component (acetone) in the investigated mixture of organic solvents, and to increase the duration of protective action. This facilitates processes of separating the recovered mixture of volatile solvents.
