Sorption reaction is pH and time dependent. The sorbent shows maximum removal of As(III) and As(V) at pH 7 and pH 6 respectively and equilibrium was achieved at 180 minutes. In isotherm study experimental data were explained by Freundlich and Flory-Huggins models. Maximum sorption capacities calculated by Freundlich Isotherm were 5672.0 μg g-1 and 13160 μg g-1 for As(III) and As(V) respectively. Psuedo-second order rate equation and Morris-Weber equation explained the kinetics of sorption reaction. Due to the presence of heterogeneous active sites on the sorbent, surface sorption as well as intra-particle diffusion occurred. Thermodynamically, sorption reaction was endothermic in nature and proceeded spontaneously. Desorption study revealed that 89.82% of As(III) and 97.11% of As(V) were removed with 1M HCl.</p> </p></abstract><publication_date><month>06</month><day>25</day><year>2021</year></publication_date><pages><first_page>257</first_page><last_page>264</last_page></pages><publisher_item><identifier id_type="pii">gnest_03321</identifier></publisher_item><doi_data><doi>10.30955/gnj.003321</doi><timestamp>1714181250</timestamp><resource>https://journal.gnest.org/publication/gnest_03321</resource></doi_data></journal_article></journal></body></doi_batch> </div>
