- Abstract
The article cites a study conducted to determine the sorption of paraquat on activated bleaching earth. The adsorption capacities were determined through the adsorption isotherms. The influence of salts and pH was also analyzed in the study. The efficacy of microporous activated carbon as adsorbent in removing paraquat from aqueous solution was reported. Although the surface area of activated bleaching earth was lower than that of activated carbon, the activated bleaching earth adsorbed more paraquat in the present study.
