 activated carbon
 supplierCommercial antiseptic solutions containing
 a mixture of antibacterial agents such as, chlorhexidine
 gluconate, in presence of a cationic surfactant like
 cetrimide, are commonly used as floor, toilet and kitchen
 cleaning agents. Although a specific composition may be
 beneficial for disinfecting human beings, these are toxic
 to aquatic organisms, the plant biota and useful
 microorganisms present in soil and in municipal sewer
 pipes. In this study, functional modification of granular
 activated carbon (GAC) is carried out with hydrochloric
 and hydrofluoric acids in order to enhance the adsorption
 capacity of GAC for simultaneous removal of both
 chlorhexidine gluconate and cetrimide. Hydrofluoric acid
 functionalized activated carbon shows highest removal of
 both cetrimide and chlorhexidine gluconate (maximum
 adsorption capacitypure component chlorhexidine gluconate
 =349.0 g/g; maximum adsorption capacitypure component
 cetrimide =23.0 g/g). Average removal of cetrimide by
 GAC, FAC-HCl and FAC-HF are 36.64 %, 47.09 % and 75.74 %
 respectively. Surface charge of modified activated
 carbons is significantly altered as compared to
 unmodified GAC which provided an enhanced net available
 driving potential for the positive cetrimonium ions to
 reach the surface much faster as compared to the bulky
 chlorhexidine gluconate molecules. Cetrimide then
 undergoes pure physical adsorption through pore
 diffusion. However, chlorhexidine gluconate forms surface
 complexes with the functional groups as confirmed by the
 relative quantities of oxygenated surface functional
 groups and Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) analysis.

 Intraparticle diffusion and Boyd plots show that film
 diffusion and not intraparticle diffusion is the rate
 controlling step.
