The BET equation is commonly used to describe type II sigmoid isotherms of water contaminants. However, there are some type II isotherms that do not agree with the BET equation. In this paper, three modified BET equations (Aguerre–Suarez–Viollaz, Pantuso–Tolaba–Aguerre, and Aranovich–Donohue) are ev...
