Abstract The occurrence and extent of selective dielectric heating with microwaves (MW) and radio waves (RW) was studied with a variety of model systems using temperature-programmed desorption (TPD). Over a wide pressure and temperature range, selectivity effects were neither found for polar adsorbates (compared to non-polar compounds) nor expressed by an overheating of metal clusters supported on a nearly MW- and RW-transparent support. In contrast, significant temperature gradients between particles consisting of materials with various dielectric losses could be established under certain conditions. The utilization of adsorbates significantly modifying the dielectric properties of a material was investigated as a further approach to initiate selective dielectric heating. Applying water as a coupling medium, a combined heat and mass transport, which we call a thermo-chromatographic pulse, can be created in a packed-bed column consisting of various zeolites. In this case, selective heating of bed zones by more than 100 K was observed. The suitability of a material for the creation of thermo-chromatographic pulses depends on its dielectric properties as well as on its sorption properties with respect to water or other coupling media. The study provided further insight into not only the potential but also the limitations of selective dielectric heating of solid materials relevant to chemical engineering, environmental technology and sorption processing.
