Removal of lead from aqueous solutions by ferric activated sludge-based adsorbent derived from biological sludge

Ferric activation was novelly used to prepare sludge-based adsorbent (SBA) through pyrolysis treatment of biological sludge, and the adsorbents were applied to adsorb Pb2+ ions from aqueous solution. The ferric-activated SBA showed a favorable porous structure development and enhanced Pb2+ ions remo...
