Fixed-Bed Adsorption for the Removal of Iron and Manganese onto Palm Fruit Bunch and Maize Cob

Fixed-Bed Adsorption for the Removal of Iron and Manganese onto Palm Fruit Bunch and Maize Cob

The sorption of iron and manganese onto palm fruit bunch and maize cob in a fixed-bed column was studied. The influence of process variables such as the bed height, the solution flow rate and the percentage breakthrough were investigated. The experimental results showed that the adsorbents used remo...
