ADSORPTION OF As(III) FROM AQUEOUS SOLUTION ONTO IRON IMPREGNATED USED TEA ACTIVATED CARBON: EQUILIBRIUM, KINETIC AND THERMODYNAMIC STUDY

ABSTRACT An efficient and cost effective adsorbent, activated carbon (UTAC) derived from used tea (UT) for the removal of As(III) from aqueous solutions was developed. To increase adsorption, UTAC was then impregnated with (magnetite) iron oxide particles (Fe-UTAC). The prepared adsorbents were char...
