Radke-Prausnitz isotherm model

empirical isotherm model for low adsorbate concentrations

deterministic model, dimensional model, mathematical model, nonlinear model, static model

Description

The Radke-Prausnitz isotherm is an empirical three-parameter adsorption model which is typically applied in adsorption systems when the concentration of the adsorbate is relatively low. Under certain conditions it reduces the Henry, Freundlich, or Langmuir isotherm model

Contained entities

Radke-Prausnitz exponent constraint	$0 \leq β \leq 1$	constraint
	$β$ represents Radke-Prausnitz exponent

Radke-Prausnitz equation	$n = \frac{a C_{e}}{1 + \frac{a}{b} C_{e}^{1 - β}}$
	$n$ represents adsorbed solute (equilibrium)
	$C_{e}$ represents solute concentration (equilibrium)
	$a$ represents Radke-Prausnitz parameter a
	$b$ represents Radke-Prausnitz parameter b
	$β$ represents Radke-Prausnitz exponent
