The aim of the work is to study the adsorption of surfactants onto adsorbents in a batch adsorber. A comparative evaluation of the low cost and biodegradable naturally occurring adsorbents of plant origin as potential adsorbent is made against poly vinyl alcohol coated charcoal for removal of surfactants from aqueous solution. Batch kinetic and isotherm experiments were conducted to determine the adsorptive behaviour of the surfactant from aqueous solution.

Abstract


The aim of the work is to study the adsorption of surfactants onto adsorbents in a batch adsorber. A comparative evaluation of the low cost and biodegradable naturally occurring adsorbents of plant origin as potential adsorbent is made against poly vinyl alcohol coated charcoal for removal of surfactants from aqueous solution. Batch kinetic and isotherm experiments were conducted to determine the adsorptive behaviour of the surfactant from aqueous solution.
