摘要
Coconut charcoals of different grades were studied for assessing the removal efficiency of chemical warfare (CW) agents from aqueous solutions. Oxygen analogue of sulphur mustard and phenol were used as model compounds for CW agents for adsorption studies. Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption isotherms were plotted. Equilibrium constant and maximum adsorption capacity for carbons were computed from the isotherm data. These studies enabled identification of an activated carbon suitable for use in reverse-osmosis water filtration systems.
