Adsorption of ClO4- (10 and 100 mg/L) follows a pseudo-first order kinetics with equilibrium time of 2-6 h but is limited by intra-particle diffusion. Anions common in natural waters exhibit interference effects due to similar electrostatic attraction mechanism, thus HCO3- and SO42- with high abundance in natural waters need pre-treatment. Regeneration of the adsorbents to 100% of its adsorption capacity by rinsing with 0.1 M NaOH is demonstrated for 12 cycles due to complete desorption of ClO4- via electrostatic repulsion, assuring reusability.This paper e
