Effective removal of phenol from wastewater using a hybrid process of graphene oxide adsorption and UV-irradiation by Al-Ghouti M.A.

“…Similarly, GO2 without exposure to UV-irradiation showed the highest adsorption capacity at pH 2, while with the effect of UV-irradiation, the optimum pH was 6. Furthermore, increasing the initial concentration of phenol led to the increase in adsorption until it reached an equilibrium where the adsorption decreased and remained constant. …”
