Applying Combined Langmuir–Freundlich Model to the Multi-Component Adsorption of BTEX and Phenol on Smectite Clay

Adsorption using clay is increasingly being applied in the secondary treatment of effluents contaminated with organic compounds discharged from oil industries. This study was aimed at applying a combined Langmuir–Freundlich model to describe the multi-component adsorption of organic compounds such a...
