Question 2 You are required to design a batch adsorption process and hence need to determine which adsorption isotherm would best represent the experimental data for the stipulated parameters presented below. You are required to find a best fit of the data for the following isotherms: (a) linear, (b) Freundlich and (c) Langmuir. From the analysis you need to determine which isotherm, if any, best fits the data reasonably well. Determine the parameters under investigation in their study from the given data. Please write a short introduction as well as explain every decision and the method in obtaining the solution to the problem.
