description <p dir="ltr">Activated carbons of resorcinol-formaldehyde aerogels (AC-RFA) were prepared and mixed with multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with various ratios. Samples were characterized by different techniques. The novelty of the study is in evaluating the effect of uniformity of carbon nanocomposites on their performance for the adsorption of CH<sub>4</sub> and CO<sub>2</sub> gases as well predicting the separation of their mixtures. The results indicated that, by increasing the percentage of MWCNTs into the sample, its structural uniformity and order ascend. The capacities of CH<sub>4</sub> and CO<sub>2</sub> by adsorption were measured at various temperatures, and were correlated with the extended dual site Langmuir (DSL) model. Overall, results showed that the adsorption capacity of MWCNTs towards gases is relatively very low compared to that of activated carbons. The DSL model was utilized to forecast the separation of the binary CO<sub>2</sub>/CH<sub>4</sub> mixed gas based on knowledge of single component adsorption isotherm parameters. Adsorption equilibrium data of the CO<sub>2</sub>/CH<sub>4 </sub>binary gas mixture was forecasted at different temperatures by DSL model in accordance with the perfect-negative (PN) or perfect-positive (PP) behaviors on the heterogeneous surface of the adsorbent.</p><h2>Other Information</h2><p dir="ltr">Published in: Applied Sciences<br>License: <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" target="_blank">https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</a><br>See article on publisher's website: <a href="http://dx.doi.org/10.3390/app11010265" target="_blank">http://dx.doi.org/10.3390/app11010265</a></p>
