Abstract

In Chemical Engineering practice, adsorption and chemical reaction occur simultaneously in a number of situations such as: catalytic decomposition over supported catalysts, where the reactant and/or the products can be adsorbed on the support [1,2,3]; removal of pollutants with activated carbon columns, where biodegradation occurs [4,5,6,7]; laboratory measurements of equilibrium and kinetic parameters in multiphase systems [8,9,10].
