Adsorption of phenol and P-chlorophenol from aqueous solutions on polymer adsorbent

In the present study, a commercial Amberlite XAD-4 resin was investigated for its ability to remove phenol and p-chlorophenol in aqueous solution. The adsorption dynamics obeyed the pseudo-second order rate equation and the adsorption rate constant of phenol was a little greater than that of p-chlor...

Description
Summary:In the present study, a commercial Amberlite XAD-4 resin was investigated for its ability to remove phenol and p-chlorophenol in aqueous solution. The adsorption dynamics obeyed the pseudo-second order rate equation and the adsorption rate constant of phenol was a little greater than that of p-chlorophenol. The adsorption isotherms can be correlated to Freundlich isotherm. The adsorption capacity for p-chlorophenol was larger than that for phenol at the same temperature and equilibrium concentration.
