energy. The constant k is related to the mean free energy of sorption per mole of the<br />
adsorbent as it is moved from infinite distance in the solution to the surface of the<br />
biomass, E, which can be calculated using the following relation:<br />
E = 1/(2k) 1/2<br />
(2.8)<br />
The values of cm and k are obtained from the slope and the intercept of lnqe versus ε<br />
plot.<br />
