Three isotherm models were used to describe adsorption equilibrium of a toxic chemical compound, phenol, onto a non porous adsorbent (Mediterranean Posidonia oceanica fibres) and a porous adsorbent, activated carbon prepared from Caribbean Vetiveria zizanoides roots. The adsorption characteristic parameters obtained were calculated using classical adsorption isotherm, i.e. the Langmuir (LI), Fr...
