Abstract
The properties of various adsorbents, among them inorganic sorbents, which are very important from biological, environmental and technological points of view, have been studied in terms of adsorption from non-electrolytic miscible binary solutions on heterogeneous solid surfaces. The simple methods for determining the adsorption distribution functions as well as the surface phase capacity from the excess adsorption isotherms are examined. Special emphasis is focused on the concept of the so-called global surface activity coefficients, since these coefficients can provide important characteristics for a given adsorption system and are useful for assessing adsorbent heterogeneity effects. Some general trends and perspectives including the investigations of solid sorbents by means of liquid adsorption are discussed.
