Evaluation of an Adsorption–Desorption Process for Concentrating Heavy Metal Ions from Acidic Wastewaters

Pine bark is a substrate which allows the attachment and de-activation of heavy metal ions, thereby cleansing the host solution. The present work was aimed at studying the removal of binary heavy metal ions from aqueous solutions using pine bark and to explore the possibility of elution as a subsequ...
