The bed was electrothermally regenerated using direct resistive heating method. The tests were performed in the range of operating parameters: IPA loading 0.18-0.26 kg/kg, voltage 19.5 V, set-point temperature 393–403 K, nitrogen flow rate 0.12 m3/h. The analysis revealed, that raising the bed temperature resulted in an increase of desorption degree of adsorbate, reduction of regeneration time and an increase in the energy consumption. The application of insulation enabled reduction of energy consumption and regeneration time by 27% and 10%, respectively.}, type={Article}, title={Evaluation of energy saving possibilities in cyclic fixed-bed adsorption process}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/115808/PDF/art04.pdf}, doi={10.24425/cpe.2020.132543}, keywords={supersorbon K40, activated carbon, electrothermal heating, regeneration}, }
