Formation of the Symmetry of Elution Curves in Linear Adsorption Dynamics

Abstract

The elution curves were modeled at a constant relative length of the adsorbent bed, but at different values of the b constant involving the kinetic and adsorption constants and the mobile phase velocity. The symmetry coefficients were calculated. They were revealed to be independent of the b constant at selected heights and have a functional dependence on the relative adsorbent bed length. A regularity in the formation of the symmetry of the elution curves in linear adsorption dynamics was established.
