Adsorption of Chromium Ion by Acid Activated Low Cost Carbon-Kinetic, Mechanistic, Thermodynamic and Equilibrium Studies
A carbonaceous adsorbent prepared from an indigenous waste by acid treatment was tested for its efficiency in removing chromium ion. The parameters studied include agitation time, initial chromium ion concentration, carbon dose, pH and temperature. The adsorption followed first order reaction equati...
