Removal of phenol from aqueous solution by dried water hyacinth(Eichhornia Crassipes)

This potential of dried water hyacinth for phenol adsorption from aqueous solution was studied. The objective in this study is to study the removal of phenol from aqueous solution by dried water hyacinth. Four parameters in this study are effect of initial phenol concentration, dried water hyacinth...

The objective in this study is to study the removal of phenol from aqueous solution by dried water hyacinth.

Water hyacinth is the suitable adsorbent to remove phenol from aqueous solution. It is very easily available and one of the low cost adsorbent. We used dried to avoid the spreading of dengue fever to the residents nearby and easily to handle and keep it. To conduct this study, first method is collect the water hyacinth.

From the result obtained, we know that the removal of phenol ions was optimum when initial phenol concentration was almost 70 mg/ L, adsorbent dosage at 1.8 g, pH 3 and at 3 hours contact time. From this study, it is shows that a biomaterial produced from dried water hyacinth can provide a simple, effective and yet cheaper method in removing phenol from aqueous solution. 2010-04 Undergraduates Project Papers NonPeerReviewed application/pdf en http://umpir.ump.edu.my/id/eprint/3418/1/CD5938_MOHD_HAZWAN_MOHAMAD_SAYUTI.pdf Mohd Hazwan, Mohamad Shayuti (2010) Removal of phenol from aqueous solution by dried water hyacinth(Eichhornia Crassipes).
