Application of the Dubinin–Astakhov Equation to the Study of the Geometric Structure,Energetic Surface Heterogeneity and Surface Topography of Carbonaceous Adsorbents

Abstract

The new theoretical approach to multisite-occupancy adsorption on heterogeneous surfaces, developed recently by Rudziński and Everett, is generalized for the case of adsorption systems characterized by non-Gaussian adsorption energy distributions. Attention is focused on the adsorption energy distribution which, in the case of one-site-occupancy adsorption, leads to the Dubinin–Astakhov isotherm equation. In effect, a generalized form of that isotherm equation is developed for the common case of multisite-occupancy adorption in actual adsorption systems. The generalized equation is sensitive to surface topography; hence, fitting it to experimental adsorption isotherms creates a chance to study the surface topography of carbonaceous surfaces. An example of such computer exercises is reported here before a more systematic study is published.
