This study introduces a new adsorbent/refrigerant pair to be used in adsorption cooling applications. Adsorption isotherms and kinetics of Difluoroethane (HFC-152a) onto highly porous activated carbon Maxsorb III at temperatures ranging from 25 to 75°C have been investigated. Experimental data of adsorption uptake have been fitted with Dubinin–Astakhov (D–A) and Tóth equations. D–A equation is found to be more suitable ... Read more
