Environmental engineering faculty typically teach this topic bydescribing mathematical models that are used to quantify adsorption. This approach, by itself,may result in students having an incomplete understanding of adsorption because studentsfrequently have difficulty visualizing scientific phenomena such as the mass transfer process thatoccurs during adsorption. A hands-on laboratory experiment (cf. Speitel, 2001) where studentscollect and analyze adsorption data, may enhance students’ understanding of adsorption.Undeniably, hands-on experiences help students develop a deeper understanding of principlesstudied in and out of the classroom (Butkus et al., 2004; Pfluger
