The knowledge of adsorption equilibria is of fundamental importance for the sizing of adsorption plants and the understanding of a large variety of physical phenomena. So far adsorption equilibria have been described empirically. This paper presents a comparison of various concepts for predicting adsorption equilibria at low concentrations in the aqueous phase. An element of uncertainty all methods have in common is the lack of a reliable database.
