Abstract
The adsorption of a ca. 5.4 x10-5 M aqueous solution of methylene blue has been examined on five activated carbon samples. The equilibrium concentrations (C,) were determined by spectrophotometry studies. The analysis of Freundlich adsorption isotherms obtained provides the adsorption capacity of each carbon sample.
