[EN] A vapor phase adsorptive recovery process is proposed
as an alternative way to isolate biobutanol from acetone-butanolethanol
(ABE) fermentation media, offering several advantages
compared to liquid phase separation. ...
[EN] The adsorptive vapour phase separation of 1-butanol from a synthetic ABE (acetone, 1-butanol, ethanol) mixture has been studied for the first time on a set of unidirectional small pore pure silica zeolites with ITW, ...
