Overview

Adsorption optimization using response surface methodology in wastewater treatment highlights activated carbon's efficiency.

Key Points

  • The maximum adsorption capacity of the activated carbon for phenol is 185.93 mg/g, emphasizing its potential for wastewater treatment.
  • Adsorption kinetics closely matched the second-order pseudo model, indicating a strong capacity for phenolic removal from wastewater.
  • Thermodynamic studies show spontaneous adsorption with negative ΔG° values, supporting the effectiveness of activated carbon.
  • Comprehensive assessments including activation energy and isosteric heat of adsorption confirm the viability of the adsorbent.
