This paper provides a useful and quick reference source to the 1999 journal
literature on adsorptive and membrane-type separations (from the 50 most i
mportant chemical engineering journals) for researchers in this area. This
article continues a series of annual bibliographic updates of the literatur
e published since 1985 (see Ray 1990-1999). The references included here ha
ve been divided into the following subject groups: theory; design data; ads
orbents; PSA and cyclic systems, and applications; liquid-phase adsorption;
ion exchange, chromatography and related separations; membranes; and membr
ane-type separations.
Adsorption and related separations for industrial and environmental applica
tions are described in detail by Dabrowski (1999) which also contains exten
sive bibliographies prepared by this author. A complete bibliographic listi
ng of the chemical engineering journal literature from 1959 to 1999 (with s
ubsequent six-monthly updates) is available on a CD-ROM database* and full
details can be obtained from the author.
