  • Description: Ideal Adsorbed Solution Theory (IAST) is a predictive model that does not require any mixture data. In gas purification and separation processes, IAST is used to predict multicomponent adsorption equilibrium and selectivity based solely on experimental single-component adsorption isotherms. In this work, the mixed gas adsorption isotherms were predicted using IAST calculations with the Python package (pyIAST). The experimental CO[sub.2] and CH[sub.4] single-component adsorption isotherms of Mg-gallate were first fitted to isotherm models in which the experimental data best fit the Langmuir model. The presence of CH[sub.4] in the gas mixture contributed to a lower predicted amount of adsorbed CO[sub.2] due to the competitive adsorption among the different components. Nevertheless, CO[sub.2] adsorption was more favorable and resulted in a higher predicted adsorbed amount than CH[sub.4]. Mg-gallate showed a stronger affinity for CO[sub.2] molecules and hence contributed to a higher CO[sub.2] adsorption capacity even with the coexistence of a CO[sub.2]/CH[sub.4] mixture. Very high IAST selectivity values for CO[sub.2]/CH[sub.4] were obtained which increased as the gas phase mole fraction of CO[sub.2] approached unity. Therefore, IAST calculations suggest that Mg-gallate can act as a potential adsorbent for the separation of CO[sub.2]/CH[sub.4] mixed gas.
