Absorption

Chemical absorption describes a process, whereby a molecule or atom diffuses into a solid or liquid to form a bond. It is not a matter of the molecule accumulating at the surface (adsorption), but it is a kind of storage in the free volume of the absorbing phase. This method is - among others - applied to desulphurize the natural gas in a hydrogen generation plant based on steam reforming process.
