Abstract
⺠C3H6-NH3+-mesoporous silicas were high capacity adsorbents for nitrate and phosphate. ⺠A kinetic study was conducted for the first time for such adsorbents and adsorbates. ⺠The adsorption was very fast reaching equilibrium within 5 min of contact time. ⺠Pseudo-second-order model described adequately the experimental kinetic data. ⺠The activation energy was 6.91 kJ/mol for nitrate and 8.59 kJ/mol for phosphate.
