This study focused on the removal of arsenic from simulated groundwater by batch adsorption using iron-modified rice husk carbon (RH-Fe). The results showed that RH-Fe was very effective in the removal of arsenic not only at low and moderate initial concentrations of arsenic (1.42 and 2.77 mg/L) but also at very high initial concentrations of arsenic (4.61 and 7.38 mg/L). The arsenic adsorption by RH-Fe was dependent on pH and varied with arsenic initial concentration and adsorbent dose. Langmuir isotherm could describe the adsorption equilibrium and the adsorption capacity was found to be 2.24mg/g. The pseudo-second order kinetic model gave the best fit with the experimental data.
