Abstract |
|
The present study deals with removal of nitrate from aqueous solution using low cost activated carbon prepared from helianthus annuus . In adsorption solute present in dilute concentration in liquid or gas phase is removed by contacting with suitable solid adsorbent so that the transfer of component first takes place on the surface of the solid and then into pore of the solid. Batch adsorption study were conducted by varying the contact time, adsorbent dosage & pH were studied. For chemically (KI) activated carbon the optimum contact time is is 45min,40min and 35min for 0.25,0.5 and 0.75 IR respectively. And the optimum dosage for chemically (KI) activated carbon is 175mg ,150mg and 100mg for 0.25,0.5 and 0.75IR respectively for 100mL of sample. And the optimum pH for chemically activated carbon is 1.5,1.5,1.5 for 0.25,.50,0.75IR respectively. |
