Special Issue: In Honor of Prof. Jim Ritter
The purpose of this special issue of Adsorption is to recognize the scientific and pedagogical contributions to adsorption science of Prof. James A. Ritter, the AIChE Area 2E Honoree for 2023. Prof. Ritter has had a long and accomplished career as an adsorption scientist and dedicated educator at the University of South Carolina in the Department of Chemical Engineering. His research focuses on the theory, modeling, measurement, and improvement of adsorption processes for economical and socially useful chemical separations. Consequently, we request contributions to this special issue that address 1) thermodynamics and theory of adsorption processes, 2) modeling and optimization of adsorption processes, 3) diffusion in and transient aspects of adsorption, and 4) engineering applications of adsorption and chromatographic separations.
To submit a manuscript to this Special Issue, click at "Submit manuscript" in the main journal webpage. Then under the "Details" tab, select the collection name in the pull-down menu.
