In this study, adsorption of 2,4-D a common used herbicide in our region on Na-Montmorillonite (MM), Ca-MM and MM and biodegradation by two Alcaligenes species isolated from soil were studied. 2,4-D, was successfully absorbed on Na-MM, Ca-MM and MM. 2,4-D desorption from Na-MM in the first 72 hours was determined by liquid-liquid exraction. For Ca-MM 2,
