Experimental and numerical investigations on the water vapor adsorption isotherms and kinetics of binderless zeolite 13X

For an open sorption process, a numerical model of the water vapor adsorption of binderless zeolite 13X beads has been developed and validated by experimental investigations. This model allows an in-depth understanding of the heat and mass transfer during the adsorption process and can furthermore be used for the designing process of thermochemical energy store.
