Abstract

Chemically activated carbon of BVT fruit shell was investigated for its potential adsorption functionalities to remove As (V) from surface water in a batch system. The AC showed maximum removal efficiency of approximately 75% depicting Qmax of 0.00018mg/g at an initial sorbate concentration of 0.016mg/L, a contact time of 26min, and a carbon dosage of 1g. The sorption isotherm studies revealed a better fit for Langmuir isotherm. Hence, a homogeneous monolayer surface adsorption process has taken place.
