A water containing 25 mg/L of phenol is to be reduced using PAC to a concentration of 10 mg/L. The PAC is added to the stream and the mixture subsequently settled in a sedimentation tank. The constants of Langmuir Equation are determined by running a jar test producing the results shown in the table.

Question

If the water concentration is reduced from 25 mg/L of phenol to a concentration of 10 mg/L, what is the adsorption capacity of the PAC?
