Description :
The present work deals with the removal of Cu(II) ion using Granular activated
carbon(F100) as a low-cost adsorbent .The influence of concentration, adsorbent
dosage, particle size, and temperature (room temp.) on removal of Cu(II) ion have been
studied by the batch adsorption technique. The removal of Cu(II) ion increases with the
increases in the adsorbent dosage. The experimental data were analyzed by the
Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms and the corresponding sorption constants were
evaluated. The present study showed that Granular activated carbon (F100) was
capable of removing copper ions from aqueous solution.
