Adsorption Characteristics of Cu(II) and Pb(II) Ions onto Natural Manganese Ore from Aqueous Solution
The adsorption of heavy metal cations, i.e. Pb(II) and Cu(II), from aqueous solution by a natural manganese mineral (rhodochrosite) was investigated. The properties of the ore were studied using SEM, FT-IR, XRD and BET methods. The value of pH pzc was determined using an equilibrium technique to giv...
