Computer analysis of microporous structure by employing the LBET class models with various variants of the adsorption energy distribution in comparison to the classical equations.
The paper presents a properties study of the new LBET class models for heterogeneous multilayer adsorption and its applicability to analysis of microporous carbonaceous adsorbents in comparison to the selected classical equations. This paper shows that the LBET formulas give a good insight into the pore size distribution and dominant pore shape. Moreover, they provide more reliable evaluation of material surface area than the popular classical equations. This research constitutes a significant development and completion of the author's earlier works and provides a basis for the evaluation of reliability of parameters calculated for real systems.
