The kinetics and the thermodynamics of phosphine (PH3) adsorption on the modified activated carbon have been explained for the adsorption process of PH3. This study investigated the kinetic and thermodynamic properties of PH3 adsorption on the activated carbon impregnated with 5% HCl solution. The thermodynamic properties including PH3 adsorption isotherm and adsorption heat were separately investigated at 20°C, 70°C, 90°C. The results showed that the Freundlich-type isotherm equation described the isotherms well. The adsorption capacity increased with increasing temperature between 20°C and 70°C. Between 70°C and 90°C, the adsorption capacity decreased obviously with increasing temperature. The adsorption capacity reached the maximum at 70°C. By analyzing the results of the kinetics and the thermodynamics, we found that the adsorption of PH3 was dominated by physical adsorption at the lower temperature (20°C). Then with increasing temperature, chemical adsorption gradually dominated in the adsorption process. The adsorption capacity decreased at above 70°C is due to the exothermic effects in the process of adsorption.
