Equilibrium Adsorption Isotherms for H2O on Zeolite 13X

Adsorption isotherms are reported for pure water vapor on zeolite 13X (also called zeolite NaX) pellets. Data were obtained using a gravimetric method over a temperature range of 25 to 100 °C and a pressure range of 0.006 to 25 kPa. These pure-component equilibria are fit with the Sips, Toth, and multisite Langmuir models, all modified with the Aranovich–Donohue (A–D) model. The A–D Sips isotherm is recommended for modeling water adsorption on zeolite 13X because it provides the best agreement with the measured isotherm data.
