In this work, the adsorption of water vapor on a commercial activated carbon is studied by means of static and dynamic measurements. To this end, two customized setups are used, which are able to deal with the challenges associated with adsorption measurements under humid conditions. In the first part, the equilibrium of water vapor on activated carbon during adsorption and desorption at 45 °C is characterized. The equilibrium adsorbed amount of water vapor exhibits a pronounced hysteresis loop, requiring the use of an isotherm model with hysteresis to describe the data. In the second part, fixed-bed experiments for both adsorption and desorption conditions at three feed velocities are presented. These dynamic experiments are described by a nonisothermal detailed column model, which considers the linear driving force model for mass transfer and axial dispersion. Heat and mass transfer coefficients are estimated so as to describe the fixed-bed experiments. The results from the static and dynamic measuremen...
