Abstract

The dynamic sorption characteristics of organic sorbent materials have been studied by using fluidized bed with a cooling pipe. The organic powder type sorbent made from a bridged complex of sodium polyacrylate which is one of the sorption polymers is adopted in this study. Sorption rate of water vapor and the variation of temperature in the sorbent bed with time were measured under various conditions. As a result, sorption ratio increases and the completion time for the sorption process decreases by using a cooling pipe. Furthermore, the non-dimensional correlation equations were obtained for water vapor mass transfer under sorption process in terms of relevant non-dimensional parameters.
