Elovich equation is qt=1βlnαβ+1βlnt is used to predict the sorption mechanism, where qt is adsorbed quantity at time t; while α and β are initial sorption concentration rate (mg·g−1·min−1), and desorption constant (g/mg), respectively. Α 7.1 × 103
Β 0.392
R2 0.978
Weber-Morris intraparticle diffusion model is used to study the formed layers around the adsorbent and rate-controlling step, which is expressed as qt=KIt0.5+C, where KI is intraparticle diffusion rate constant (mg·g−1·min−0.5), and C is the boundary thickness effect. KI 2.19 0.55
