Abstract
A simplified method of making an adsorbent layer can permit design and analysis of sorption systems having improved performance can include generation of one dimensional channels.
Claims20
A method of fabricating an adsorption layer on a surface comprising:
- infiltrating a mixture of an adsorbent material and a liquid into a porous structure;
- and
- heating the liquid at a pressure and temperature to create bubbles at a surface of the porous structure, thereby evaporating the liquid to form a coating layer of adsorbent material on the surface of the porous structure.
A sorption bed comprising:
- a porous structure including a coating layer of adsorbent material on the surface of the porous structure, wherein the porous structure includes a majority of vapor channels continuous through a thickness of the porous structure.
