Abstract |
The rapid small-scale column test (RSSCT), a physical model of a fixed bed, was developed and evaluated experimentally to simulate full-scale adsorber performance. The RSSCT can simulate months of full-scale adsorber operation in several days; however, some isotherms and kinetic data are required for design. The dispersed flow, pore surface diffusion model (DFPSDM) was used to determine the proper adsorbent particle size, hydraulic loading, and empty-bed contact time of the RSSCT from the data from the full-scale adsorber. The experimental RSSCT breakthrough profiles for a six-solute mixture at influent concentrations between 3000 and 6000 micrograms/l were identical to those of a pilot-scale column test. |
