Abstract

Comparison analysis of linear least square method and non-linear method for estimating the isotherm parameters was made using the experimental equilibrium data of safranin onto activated carbon at two different solution temperatures 305 and 313 K. Equilibrium data were fitted to Freundlich, Langmuir and Redlich–Peterson isotherm equations. All the three isotherm equations showed a better fit to the experimental equilibrium data. The results showed that non-linear method could be a better way to obtain the isotherm parameters. Redlich–Peterson isotherm is a special case of Langmuir isotherm when the Redlich–Peterson isotherm constant g was unity.
