Cover Story: This work presents the first approach toward a novel concept of adsorption-oriented physics-informed neural networks. This new concept merges the idea of physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) in modeling adsorption systems, which are characterized by challenging behavior to simulate any numerical method. The PINN is a complete, new standpoint for solving engineering first-principle models, which up to the date was not explored in the field of adsorption systems. The results provided in this work point toward the potential of this technique to address complex numerical problems found in chemical engineering. View this paper
