Abstract EN

The present work aims to investigate the removal of Paraquat dichloride Pesticide from aqueous solutions by low cost ,neutral adsorbents, eco-friendly, highly efficient such as aquatic crustean shells under various activation experimental conditions, as an ideal alternative to the current expensive methods of removing pesticide from waste water.

Preliminary studies showed that paraquate attained equilibrium at 2 hours in barnacle shell powder indicating to the relative adsorption increased with increasing solution concentration.

The results were showed the removal percentage increase with increasing of heat treatment of the adsorbent media (barnacle shell powder).
