Abstract: This paper presents the equations of adsorption dynamics in fixed bed which are valid on condition that the overall mass-transfer coefficient is constant and the influence of longitudinal diffusion negligible. In this connection, some analytical expressions describing the limiting shape of adsorption isoplanes have been deduced for the validity region of the Freundlich as well as of the Langmuir equation of adsorption isotherm.
