`Small amounts (0.0 M-0.01 M) of inorganic salts (sodium chloride, calcium chloride, and aluminum chloride) added to bituminous coal fly ash and granular activated carbon in batch adsorption treatment experiments indicates the possibility of enhancing the extent and rate of adsorption process.
Experiments were conducted on aqueous solutions of highly toxic and hazardous chemicals, those include : phenol, benzene, toluene, isopropyl alcohol, and methyl-isobutyl ketone. Single and multiple solute systems were examined separately. Removal of organic pollutants was measured using a Flame Ionization Detector Gas Chromatograph.
This study investigated the role of inorganic salts during the sorption process. The results …
