Abstract
SEPARATION of oxygen, nitrogen and carbon dioxide by gas–solid chromatography has been accomplished on multiple columns of different adsorbents1,2. Greene et al.3 almost achieved this separation on activated charcoal, but resolution of oxygen and nitrogen with this adsorbent was incomplete.
