Adsorption of Di-N-butyl Phthalate onto Nutshell-Based Activated Carbon. Equilibrium, Kinetics and Thermodynamics
The adsorption of di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP) from aqueous solution was studied in a batch adsorption system. Activated carbons from coals, coconut shell and nutshell were evaluated to determine the most effective adsorbent. Kinetic and equilibrium studies were investigated at various initial DBP con...
