Abstract

Present study deals with the adsorption of iron(II) from its aqueous solution on cuscuta powder. Several parameters like adsorbate concentration, adsorbent dose, pH, adsorption time and temperature were studied in batch experiments. Langmuir, Freundlich and Tempkin adsorption models were applied to describe the isotherms and isotherm constants. Equilibrium data fitted well in the Langmuir model. The pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order kinetic equations were used to model the adsorption kinetics. The second order kinetics found a better fit.
