A comparative study for adsorption of carbolic acid by synthetic resins

摘要: Carbolic Acid which is called phenol one of the important starting and/or intermediate materials in various industrial processes. However, its excessive release into environment poses a threat to living organisms, as it highly carcinogens and hazardous pollutant even at very low concentration. Thus removal from polluted environments crucial for sustainable remediation process. We developed cost adsorption method separating model aqueous solution. The was studied using two adsorbents i.e., Amber lite XAD-16 XAD-7 HP with constant amount resin 0.1 g varying concentrations () room temperature. compared efficacy removing higher media. investigated equilibrium kinetics studies employing Freundlich, Temkin Langmuir isotherms. Amberlite performed better than terms efficiency that amounted 95.52%. Pseudo second order fitted both systems. coefficient determination isotherm found be 0.98 HP. Freundlich showed value 0.95 XAD-16, indicating isotherms could described on respectively.
