Removal of Cd (II) from Aqueous Media by Adsorption onto Chemically and Thermally Treated Rice Husk
Chemically and thermally treated rice husks were evaluated as a potential decontaminant of toxic Cd (II) in aqueous media. Rice husk (RH), a by-product from rice milling, was chemically treated with HCl and NaOH. Then, thermal treatments to 300, 500, and 700°C were applied. The chemical composition...
