Abstract
In the present study, different low cost adsorbents were screened for their sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS, an anionic surfactant) removal capacity. Waste activated carbon (WAC) from the aqua purifier has shown high efficiency for SDS removal. The performance evaluation in the presence of various ions (Ca2+, , and Cl−) and at various pH was studied. Desorption studies were conducted using simple sonication and pH variation technique. Column adsorption studies were performed. SEM and EDS studies were done on the adsorbing material before adsorption, after adsorption and after desorption of SDS.
