Abstract
Methane adsorption on the microporous carbon adsorbent AUK was calculated on the basis of Dubinin’s theory of volume filling of micropores in the temperature range 177.7—393 K and at pressures from 1 Pa to 6 MPa. The calculated isotherms of absolute adsorption were compared with the isotherms of methane obtained experimentally. Good agreement between the calculated and experimentally measured amounts adsorbed is observed in the area of applicability of the theory at micropore ranging in coverage θ from 0.25 to 0.95. The adsorption isosters were calculated for the same pressure and temperature ranges. The adsorption isosters satisfactorily represent the temperature dependence of the amount of methane adsorbed obtained experimentally. The calculations gave for the thermal coefficient of limiting adsorption a value of 6hcalc = 1.64• 10-3 K-1., which exceeds the experimental value by ∼15%.
