In the air separation plant, the adsorption capacity of the adsorbents is expressed by static adsorption capacity and dynamic adsorption capacity. The static adsorption capacity is the largest amount of adsorbed substance when the adsorbents per unit mass (or unit volume) reach the adsorption equilibrium under certain temperature and certain concentration of absorbed components, that is the ratio of the maximum adsorptive capacity (equilibrium value) that can be reached by the adsorbents to the adsorbents. The dynamic adsorption capacity is the adsorptive capacity when the absorbents reach the "conversion point" (expressed by the average adsorptive capacity per unit of absorbents in the adsorber ). Generally, it is calculated by "conversion time", that is, the time from the fluid contacting the absorbents layer to the "conversion point. "Turning effect point" is the point where the concentration of absorbed component increases obviously when fluid flows out of the absorption layer. ...
