  production rates and oxidation isotherms. The film diffusion was the controlling step for the oxygen uptake process, and its parameters were determined on the basis of the uptake rate model. The steady-state oxygen uptake data were also evaluated with Langmuir, Temkin, Freundlich, and Dubinin?Radushkevich isotherms. The Langmuir isotherm model correlated the oxidation isotherms best, and the peak uptake capacity decreased with increasing temperatures, which suggests an exothermic process. In conclusion, the negative Gibbs free energy values (??<
