Reliability of the mass transfer factor models to describe the adsorption of NH4+ by granular activated carbon

In spite of the adsorption of a solute onto porous material that can be described using the various models, the reliability of these models supported each other needs to be verified. In this work, the adsorption of NH4+ ions from domestic wastewater treatment plant effluent (DWTPE) onto commercial g...

In this work, the adsorption of NH4+ ions from domestic wastewater treatment plant effluent (DWTPE) onto commercial granular activated carbon (CGAC) was processed both in batch and column experiments. The Freundlich and Langmuir isotherm models and the pseudo-first-order (PFO) and pseudo-second-order (PSO) kinetic models were used for the analysis of data obtained from batch experiments. The bed depth service time (BDST), Thomas, and modified mass transfer factor (MMTF) models were used to describe the behaviors of NH4+ adsorption by the CGAC adsorbent using the data collected from column experiments. The results showed that batch experimental data better matched by the Freundlich isotherm model and by PSO kinetic model indicate the state of multilayer adsorption supported by electrostatic interaction of NH4+ ions with chemical functional groups on the surface of CGAC.
