This work is part of the fight against environmental pollution in relation to the elimination of bisphenol A (BPA). The aim of this study was to develop an innovative process involving cross-current adsorption of BPA on an activated carbon based on Hyphaene Thebaica (CA-HT) shells. Cross-current adsorption tests yielded removal rates of 99.48 % and 82.02 % in synthetic and BPA-doped solutions respectively. Optimal factors were obtained by a composite design for a concentration of 80 mg/L and 50 mg activated carbon. Pseudo-second-order kinetics and the Freundlich isotherm were the appropriate models. Thermodynamic values indicate that the process was spontaneous and exothermic.
