TY - JOUR TI - EXPERIMENTAL DATA AND MODELING FOR THE ADSORPTION/DESORPTION OF TETRACYCLINE AND DICLOFENAC ON THE AGRICULTURAL SOILS AB - The adsorption-desorption characteristics of tetracycline and diclofenac onto two different agricultural soils (S1 and S2) were investigated using the batch equilibrium method. The adsorption experiments were used to optimize the two variable parameters (contact time (5-120 min), initial pollutant concentration (5-300 mg/L)) on the adsorption of tetracycline and diclofenac. The adsorption kinetics for tetracycline and diclofenac onto soil are well described by a bi-exponential adsorption model characterized by fast and slow adsorption rates. Non-linear adsorption curves fitted well to the Langmuir, Freundlich and Temkin equations. The maximum adsorption capacity (qm) of tetracycline and diclofenac onto the soils S1 and S2 were calculated to be 55.90 mg/g, 41.92 mg/g, 26 mg/g and 6.42 mg/g, respectively. Kd, Koc, foc and qa values were calculated. The adsorption efficiency of tetracycline and diclofenac by the soils S1 and S2 was over 97%. The Kd parameters for the adsorption of tetracycline and diclofenac onto the soils S1 and S2 were found to be 3537 L/kg, 654 L/kg, 1669 L/kg and 3105 L/kg, respectively. The reversibility of the adsorption process was evaluated by desorption experiments using different concentrations of HDTMA and Triton-x surfactants. The desorption rates were higher for diclofenac than for tetracycline.
