TL;DR: In this article, the ability of activated carbon to adsorb various pollutants from aqueous solutions has been studied, including phenol, p-chlorophenol, sodium dodecyl sulphate, mercuric ions and chromic(III) ions.

TL;DR: In this paper, an electrochemical oxidation cell is used to reduce the concentrations of organic dyes and chemical oxygen demand in an aqueous effluent, and the importance of the presence of an electrolyte is recorded and the effects of changing both electrolyte concentration and initial dye concentration are reported.

TL;DR: In this paper, a wide range of experimental studies are reported for the adsorption of phenol and p-chlorophenol onto activated carbon in an agitated batch adsorber.

TL;DR: The adsorption of phenol, p-chlorophenol and mercuric ions from aqueous solution onto activated carbon has been studied in fixed bed columns and an optimization procedure based on the Empty Bed Residence Time has been applied to the data.

TL;DR: In this article, the adsorption of phenol, p-chlorophenol and mercuric ions onto activated carbon in fixed beds has been studied and the results have been used to predict optimum conditions for the systems based on the C exhaustion rate and the empty bed residence time.
