Abstract
Notice of Retraction
After careful and considered review of the content of this paper by a duly constituted expert committee, this paper has been found to be in violation of IEEE´s Publication Principles.
We hereby retract the content of this paper. Reasonable effort should be made to remove all past references to this paper.
The presenting author of this paper has the option to appeal this decision by contacting TPII@ieee.org.
Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) has increasingly attracted global concerns in recent years and has also been proposed as the candidates of persistent organic pollutants due to their world-wide distribution, environmental persistence and bioaccumulation potential. The adsorption effect factor, thermodynamics and kinetics of PFOS from aqueous solutions onto granular activated carbon (GAC) was investigated. The adsorption reaction obtains equilibrium within 180 min and the maximum PFOS removal tended to be 99%. The adsorption reaction was affected by temperature, adsorbent dose and solution pH. The equilibrium data were best fitted to Langmuir isotherm model.
