The process of using low pressure steam or hot nitrogen gas to remove compounds from an adsorbent bed.
The release of an absorbed or adsorbed substance, as in contaminants that are released from particles of sediment back into adjoining porewater.
The opposite of absorption, whereby the material retained by a medium or another material is released.
the process of removing an adsorbed material from the solid on which it is adsorbed.
The act of removing an absorbed or adsorbed substance.
Opposite of absorption or adsorption. In filtration, it relates to the downstream release of particles previously retained by the filter.( 395)
describes the opposite process to an adsorption, that means the removal of aggregated particles from a surface
Release of adsorbed or absorbed material .
Opposite of adsorption; a decrease in the amount of adsorbed substance Gold, Loening, McNaught and Sehmi, 1987
Desorptio Desorption An opposite reaction to adsorption, removal of gases, liquids or aggregated particles from a surface.
the removal of adsorbed gas or liquid molecules from the surface of a solid
The opposite of adsorption.
The reverse process of absorption. The agent will be “removed” from the surface (out gassing).
Desorption is a phenomenon and process opposite of sorption (that is, adsorption or absorption), whereby some of a sorbed substance is released. This occures in a system being in the state of sorption equilibrium between bulk phase (fluid, i.e. gas or liquid solution) and an adsorbing surface (solid or boundary separating two fluids). When the concentration (or pressure) of substance in the bulk phase is lowered, some of the sorbed substance changes to the bulk state.
