Desorption of chromium (VI) and lead (II) ions and regeneration of the exhausted adsorbent

Abstract The desorption characteristics of previously adsorbed hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] and divalent lead [Pb(II)] ions on groundnut husk were tested by various desorption eluents such as tap water, de-ionized water, NaOH, HCl and H2SO4. Among them, HCl and H2SO4 were chosen as the best desorbin...
