Abstract
⺠The kinetic and equilibrium sorption behavior of heavy oil onto sediment is reported. ⺠The process was shown to follow a pseudo-second-order kinetic rate model. ⺠Increasing initial heavy oil concentration in solution decreased the sorption rate. ⺠The isotherm followed Freundlich model and the process was spontaneous and exothermic. ⺠Higher concentrations of NaCl, lower pH and lower temperatures favored the sorption.
