The application of eggshells and sugarcane bagasse as potential biomaterials in the removal of heavy metals from aqueous solutions
Lead and cadmium are amongst some of the most hazardous and carcinogenic heavy metals to contaminate water sources in the industrial sector. As such, there have been several research efforts to remediate this worldwide environmental concern. The main objective of this study was to determine the effi...
