Comparative Adsorption of Phenol, P-Nitrophenol and P-Hydroxybenzoic Acid on Activated Carbon

Adsorption isotherms of phenol, p-nitrophenol and p-hydroxybenzoic acid at three temperatures in the range 1–40° C on activated carbon have been obtained experimentally. Curve fitting to several theoretical equations shows that the Prausnitz equation gives the lowest deviations (1–3%). An inversion...
