Abstract
Separation of a binary mixture by a three-step one-column pressure swi ng adsorption process in isothermal and adiabatic cases has been studi ed. The separation performance of the process is characterized by thre e parameters. enrichment, recovery and productivity. It has been compa red at various operating conditions. The evolution of the bed performa nce from cycle to cycle and the bed dynamics at cyclic steady state ha ve also been addressed.
