Adsorption — takes place on the surface of a substrate
Absorption — one substance enters the bulk, or volume, of another substance e.g. a gas absorbed by a liquid

It is important to have an understanding of both processes and the differences between them when considering separation protocols, particularly in gas and liquidchromatography. The major difference between adsorption and absorption is that one is a surface process and the other a bulk process.
