an inset in Figure 36.14. As seen in the igure, the adsorption times are approximately the
same for As(III) and As(V) at the same inlet concentrations. Furthermore, the solute uptakes
calculated from the breakthrough curves are found to be consistent with the batch equi-
librium data, reconirming the potential application of such materials for water puriiers.
