Kinetics of Phenol Removal from Aqueous Solution by Adsorption onto Peanut Shell Acid-Activated Carbon

A pseudo-second-order rate equation describing the kinetic adsorption of phenol onto peanut shell acid-activated carbon at different initial concentrations, carbon dosages and particle sizes has been developed. The adsorption kinetics were followed on the basis of the amount of phenol adsorbed at va...
