| Abstract: | Adsorption of 2-phenylethyl alcohol (PEA) from supercritical CO2 onto silica aerogel was investigated. A monolayer to multilayer adsorption isotherm was observed, measured at 15.0 MPa and 323.2 K, from the PEA-unsaturated to PEA-saturated supercritical CO2, indicating the potential utility of the solute-saturated supercritical adsorption (SSA). The amount of PEA adsorbed on the silica aerogel with SSA at different temperatures and pressures was measured, and the release of PEA from the aerogel at 303.2 K was also evaluated. A theoretical model for the SSA equilibrium was developed with the assistance of the adsorption isotherms of pure CO2 onto the silica and considering a three-phase binary system, where the two-dimensional van der Waals equation of state and the three-dimensional Stryjek–Vera modification of the Peng–Robinson equation of state were used respectively to describe the adsorbed phase and the bulk phases (vapor phase and liquid phase). Results showed that the model was capable of describing the adsorption behavior of the system with an average absolute relative deviation of 3.3%. |
