On the Adsorption Capability of Powder Activated Carbon for Phenol

摘要

Using solid phase extraction and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), this paper studies the adsorption capability of activated carbon to phenol. The phenol wastewater is simulated with raw water and pure water, respectively. In detail, we examine impact factors including adsorption time, activated carbon dosage, equilibrium concentration of phenol. Using the adsorption principles from the aspect of kinetics, our study shows that adsorption of powder activated carbon to phenol conforms to the Fran Delhi Freundrich adsorption model.
