## Abstract The adsorption isotherms and rates of two dyes and humic acid from aqueous solutions onto chitosanβencapsulated activated carbon (CEAC) beads were measured at 30βΒ°C. Such beads were prepared by mixing different weight percents of cuttlefishβbased chitosan (100%, 80%, 67%, and 55%) and r

β¦ Synopsis
The kinetics and mechanism of adsorption of two commercial dyes (BR22, AB25), phenol, and 3-chlorophenol from water on activated carbons were studied at 30 β’ C. The activated carbons were prepared from plum kernels, and the activation temperature and time tested were in the ranges 750-900 β’ C and 1-4 h, respectively. Three simplified kinetic models including a pseudo-first-order, a pseudosecond-order, and an intraparticle diffusion model were tested. It was shown that the adsorption of both phenols could be fitted to a pseudo-second-order rate law, and that of both dyes could be fitted to an intraparticle diffusion model. Kinetic parameters were calculated and correlated with the physical properties of the adsorbents.
