Non-empirical quantum chemical calculation of Henry and separation constants and heats of adsorption for diatomic gases in faujasite

Abstract

The Henry and separation constants and heat of adsorption of N₂ and O₂ in faujasite are calculated in a non-empirical way; they show fair agreement with experiment taking into account the extreme sensitivity of the configuration integral to small variations in interaction energy values.
