Lab: Sorption Capacity
Goal: use an adsorption isotherm to determine the sorption capacity of GAC for methylene blue.
Method: the class will be divided into 4 groups. Each group will be responsible for completing the following tasks:
Task 1. Prepare the adsorption isotherm
- measure different amounts of GAC into 250-mL bottles and fill with methylene blue
- place bottles in tumbler to equilibrate for 1 week
