Abstract
Batch kinetic and isotherm experiments were conducted to determine the sorption-desorption behavior of 2,4-dichlorophenol from seawater solutions by marine sediments containing various amounts of organic carbon (from 1.02% to 12.72% dry weight). The results indicated linear type isotherms for sorption and desorption in all marine sediments studied. The observed difference in linear sorption coefficients between sorption and desorption was indicative of sorption hysteresis. The kinetic experiments showed that equilibrium was established in less than 20 h. The study is significant with respect to sediment remediation in contaminated harbors and coastal areas.Entities:
