bed: Non-Linear Boyd External Diffusion Model

In PUPAK: Parameter Estimation, and Plot Visualization of Adsorption Kinetic Models

Non-Linear Boyd External Diffusion Model

Description

The Boyd External Diffusion Model is frequently applied to adsorption kinetic data to calculate the rate constant, assuming that film diffusion is the rate-limiting step in the first few minutes of the adsorption process. The film diffusion has a strong dependency on agitation. Boyd’s diffusion models are used in numerous adsorption studies mostly to determine the rate-controlling step (Viegas, Campinas, Costa, and Rosa, 2014).

Usage

bed(t, qt, qinf)

Arguments

t	the numerical value for contact time
qt	the numerical value for the amount adsorbed at time t
qinf	the numerical value for the amount adsorbed at infinite time. If this parameter is not defined, it will be estimated.

Value

the non-linear regression and the parameter estimation for the Boyd External Diffusion model
