Abstract

This dissertation aims to develop adsorption tubes for measuring organic solvents in the working environment, by comparing and analyzing breakthrough condition and adsorption capacity with ACF. 1. In breakthrough characteristics, the raising velocity of breakthrough curve is increasing according to assault concentration, but $50\%$ breakthrough time is decreasing. As breakthrough curve of calculated data using this agrees with the one of experimental data both of them can be used on determining sampling time of adsorption tubes. It is predicted by theoretical that $10\%$ breakthrough time is increasing in the case of increasing filled adsorbent amount. 2. $10\%$ breakthrough time is regularly decreasing as much as assault concentration is increasing. As a result, we can predict the life of adsorbent within the range of the low concentration, and adsorption amount that ACF can sample during $10\%$ breakthrough time is increasing as much as assault concentration is increasing.
