A study on kinetics and equilibrium is presented on the adsorption of arsenic species from simulated groundwater containing arsenic (As(III):As(V)::1:1), Fe and Mn in concentrations of 0.188 mg/L, 2.8 mg/L and 0.6 mg/L, respectively, by iron impregnated granular activated charcoal (GAC‐Fe). Also presented is the interaction effect of As, Fe and Mn on the removal of arsenic species from water, which simulates contaminated groundwater. Among conventional models, pseudo second‐order kinetic model and Freundlich isotherm were adequate to explain the kinetics and equilibrium of adsorption process, respectively. However, in comparison to conventional isotherm empirical polynomial isotherm provided a more accurate prediction on equilibrium specific uptakes of arsenic species. Effects of initial concentrations of As, Fe and Mn on the removal of total arsenic (As(T)), As(V) & As(III) have been correlated within the error limit of −0.2 to +5.64%.
