Equilibrium Isotherm Modeling, Kinetics and Thermodynamics Study for Removal of Lead from Waste Water

The low cost adsorbent palm oil fuel ash (POFA) derived from an agricultural waste material was investigated as a replacement of current expensive methods for treating wastewater contaminated by Pb(II) cation. Adsorption studies were carried out to delineate the effect of contact time, temperature,...
