Equilibrium Studies and Optimization of Phosphate Adsorption from Synthetic Effluent Using Acid Modified Bio-Sorbent

Abstract: Adsorption potential of periwinkle shell (PRW), an agricultural waste, for the removal of phosphate from aqueous solution was investigated through equilibrium studies at various experimental conditions. PRW was carbonized and chemically activated with 1MH 2 SO 4 before it was subjected to characterization using Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR), Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Adsorption data were analyzed using various kinetic and isotherm models. Statistical modeling th… Show more

“…For a favourable adsorption, 0 < n < 1, while n > 1 represents an unfavourable adsorption, and n = 1 indicates a linear adsorption [58]. A larger n value means that the system is more heterogeneous, which usually results in non-linearity of the adsorption isotherm [59]. A Freundlich exponential coefficient (n) in the range from 0.71 to 1.15 is newly reported for the adsorption of triclosan on pristine polystyrene nanoparticles.…”
