#Adsorption #Breakthrough experiments are so ubiquitous, but there isn't a good reference/review paper that addresses this technique. We wrote this review paper keeping graduate students, new entrants in mind. We hope this will be helpful. Summary in 10 pts.: 1. SET-UP: Minimize dead volume; Control inlet flow & composition; Measure outlet flow &composition;Keep col.dia/part.dia >10, col.len/col.dia>3. Measure pressure drop. Industrial column-adiabatic; Lab-scale- finite heat transfer => Measure temperature inside column.
