Abstract An empirical model for predicting sorption isotherms of organic cations was tested using a set of 10 soils and sediments. The model is based on a competitive Langmuir equation with modifications for grouping the various competing ion species and for normalizing over a broad range of sediment properties. Normalization is accomplished by substituting cation exchange capacities (CECs) determined with NH4(+1) for the Langmuir capacity term. Natural exchange ions are grouped and treated as a single competing species for simplicity. A single calibration enables estimation of sorption isotherms for other sediments for which estimates of CECs and competing electrolyte concentrations are known.
