The desorption profile for MEK/water vapor mixture is quite similar to that for the benzene/water vapor mixture, indicating that the adsorbate is only partially desorbed at the adsorption temperature, with a significant amount of it remaining adsorbed on the carbon. This result suggests that, as in the case of benzene, MEK remains strongly adsorbed on the narrow micropores of the carbon. On the opposite, methanol/water vapor mixture is totally desorbed at the adsorption temperature
