Abstract:
Removal of pyridine is very important from the contaminated area because it can easily evaporate and mix with air, it is very harmful compound. In this study various parameters were studied during the adsorptive removal of Pyridine by BFA. Following major conclusions can be drawn from the present study: The kinetic study showed that removal by BFA exhibited 1st order kinetics. It was also found that BFA exhibited significantly higher adsorption capacity for the adsorption of Pyridine due to higher surface area. Various isotherms fitting were tested which showed that for BFA, comparing R2 values, it was clear that R-P isotherm best fits the experimental data at higher temperature as well as at lower temperatures, for BFA.
