Synthesis and characterization of goethite coated with copper oxide and its effect on the removal of aqueous mercury(II) ions

This paper has investigated the synthesis and characterization of CuO-coated goethite and its application in the removal of mercury. The presence of CuO coating significantly modified the adsorption pattern of mercury on goethite. The synthesis was carried out in a trimetric manner and characterizat...
