| Abstract | Carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) have attracted a great deal of research interest for their potential environmental applications because of their unique properties. Adsorption of organic chemicals on CNMs was reported to be important in controlling their environmental risks. However, the kinetics of the adsorption is hardly investigated in literature. The objective of this work was, therefore, to quantitatively describe the sorption kinetics of 17 α-ethinyl estradiol (EE2) and bisphenol A (BPA) on CNMs as compared to activated carbon (AC).Batch adsorption/desorption (kinetic) experiments were conducted, and different kinetic models were used to process experimental data and obtain kinetic parameters.CNM adsorption kinetics could be described well using the improved pseudo second order kinetics model, and negative relationships were observed between the equilibrium solid-phase concentration and the modified rate constant (k 2a*). The rearrangement of CNM aggregates after adsorbing high concentrations of adsorbates could be the reason of decreased adsorption rate with increasing EE2 or BPA loading on CNMs. The diffusion-controlled kinetic process seems not important for the adsorption of EE2 and BPA on CNMs; whereas, their adsorption on AC appears to be diffusion controlled, as indicated by a linear relationship between solid-phase concentration and t $^{0.5}$.Single-walled carbon nanotubes adsorb large amounts of EE2 and BPA fast and retain them strongly. These results suggest that single-walled carbon nanotubes have potential for applications in the treatment and purification of water contaminated by the chemicals. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
