“…Other factors that can affect the adsorption in a significant way are the granulometric distribution, ash content, high mechanical resistance, the activation process to which the carbon was submitted [2,3], viscosity [29], temperature of the liquid phase [1,11,22,24], contact time of the adsorbent with the solution [1,18,22,24,28], and solubility of the adsorbate [5].…”
