Removal of Toxic Pollutants from Aqueous Solutions by Adsorption onto an Organobentonite

An organobentonite was prepared by adsorbing the cationic surfactant hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (HDTMA) onto the surface of a calcium bentonite. The adsorption capacity of the organobentonite towards 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), phenol and the dichromate ion (HCrO − 4 ) from aqueo...
