Gas-Solid Adsorption Thermodynamics tackles the underexplored role of thermodynamics in the energetics of gas-solid physical adsorption, examining and outlining their role in different adsorption-based heat transformation energy applications. It deals with different adsorbate/adsorbent pairs from the rigor of adsorption thermodynamics and their utilization in various applications. The book provides a comprehensive overview of adsorption heat transformations from the rigorous perspective of adsorption thermodynamics and give in-depth insights into how thermodynamics affects system performance. The chapters introduce diverse sorption applications using various adsorbent/adsorbate combinations and their thermodynamic characterizations. A key aspect of the book is that it shows how adsorption thermodynamics affects system performances from an energetic standpoint, given that thermodynamics are strongly related to the energetics of adsorption systems. Different chapters introduce the brief background of utilizing the gas-solid adsorption phenomenon in multifarious energy applications such as thermal management, desalination, volatile organic compound removal, etc. The book includes experimental, theoretical, numerical, and molecular dynamic simulation techniques used to model adsorption thermodynamics. Gas-Solid Adsorption Thermodynamics is written for graduate students, postdoc researchers and scientists in physical and materials chemistry, chemical engineering, energy, and mechanical engineering who are working on adsorption-based heat transformation applications.
