Abstract

Abstract This study used artificial neural network modeling to predict carbon dioxide adsorption capacity on two zeolite adsorbents, 13X (MS 544HP) and 5A (MS 522). Temperature and pressure were used as the system inputs and adsorption capacity as the output. To determine the network training algorithm, the optimal transfer functions in the hidden and output layers and the optimal number of neurons, the coefficient of the determination, and the root mean square error were calculated. To find the best network training algorithm, eight different algorithms, including TRAINBFG, TRAINRP, TRAINCGP, TRAINCGF, TRAINR, TRAINCBG, TRAINBR, and TRAINLM were compared. After modeling the experimental data, the Levenberg–Marquardt backpropagation (BP) algorithm was used to train the network for both zeolites. The optimal number of neurons for both 13X and 5A zeolites was obtained as 10. Finally, the results of artificial neural network modeling and the Toth model, obtained by Wang, were compared. Coefficients of determination for artificial neural network and Toth have been obtained for 13X adsorbent, as 0.9974, and 0.9918 and they were determined as 0.9941 and 0.9923 for 5A adsorbent, respectively. These R 2 values show the high accuracy of the artificial neural network compared with the Toth model.
