Removal of lead(II) from aqueous solution using date seed-derived biochar: batch and column studies

Abstract This study explored the adsorption of lead ion from aqueous solution onto biochars produced from date seed biomass. Initial evaluation of nine date seed-derived biochars showed that biochar prepared at 550 °C and heating time of 3 h (DSB550-3) was the best adsorbent for Pb2+ ion removal. Th...
