Introduction to Separation Processes

Chromatography uses solid adsorbents, while adsorption uses liquid adsorbents on a solid support.

Chromatography separates components in gas or liquid mixtures, while adsorption is used to remove components present in low concentrations.

Chromatography involves passing the feed through a bed of packing, while adsorption requires a pressure field. (correct)
