Summary, etc. Removal of atrazine, metribuzin, metolachlor and alachlor in mixture at 5 μg mL<sup>-1</sup> fortification level on granular carbon has been studied using batch method. Metribuzin is found to be the most adsorbed herbicide and adsorption followed the order: metribuzin&gt; atrazine&gt; alachlor&gt; metolachlor. Desorption results suggest that atrazine and metribuzin are bound irreversibly while metolachlor and alachlor are desorbed and percent desorption of alachlor (1.28%) is more than metolachlor (1.14%). Column studies using granular carbon have been carried out at fortification level of 5, 1 and 0.1 μg mL<sup>-1</sup>. At higher concentration (1 and 5 μg mL<sup>-1</sup>), metolachlor is least sorbed and sorption followed order: metolachlor&gt;alachlor&gt; atrazine&gt;metribuzin but, at lower concentration (0.1 μg mL<sup>-1</sup>), alachlor is the least adsorbed herbicide. The performance of horizontal column is found better than the vertical column.
