Non-Linear Ritchie's Equation

Description

The Ritchie's Equation is a well-known empirical rate equation for gas particle adsorption on solid surfaces. Assuming that the rate of adsorption is exclusively determined by the percentage of vacant sites at time t (Kaki, Gögsu, Altindal, Salih, and Bekaroglu, 2020).

Usage

richie(t, qt, qe, n)

Arguments

t

the numerical value for contact time

qt

the numerical value for the amount adsorbed at time t

qe

the numerical value for the amount adsorbed at equilibrium. If this parameter is not defined, it will be estimated.

n

the Richie's equation order of reaction. If the parameter value n=1, the function will proceed to first-order Richie's equation. If the value n=2, the function will proceed to second-order Richie's equation, and if the n is not defined, the value of n will be estimated.

Value

the non-linear regression and the parameters estimation for the Richie adsorption kinetic model
