Weber-Van Vliet Isotherm Nonlinear Analysis

Description

It provides an excellent description of data patterns for a broad range of systems. This model is suitable for batch rate and fixed-bed modelling procedures as it gives a direct parameter evaluation.

Usage

webervanvlietanalysis(Ce, Qe)

Arguments

Ce

the numerical value for the equilibrium capacity

Qe

the numerical value for the adsorbed capacity

Value

the nonlinear regression and the parameters for Weber-Van-Vliet Isotherm Analysis
