Abstract
⺠Limestone has ability to adsorb 98% PO4-P from aqueous solution at optimum conditions. ⺠Freundlich and Langmuir isotherms both provided comparable correlation coefficient values. ⺠Adsorption kinetics shows good compliance with the pseudo-second-order kinetics model. ⺠It indicates that the adsorption is chemisorption. ⺠Higher flow rate and pH yielded shorter column saturation time in upflow column study.
