This study explored the adsorption capacity of Coconut (Cocos nucifera L.) shell for Pb 2+,
Cu 2+, Cd 2+ and As 3+ from aqueous solutions. The effect of various operational …

The presence of organic chemical pollutants such as methyl orange (MOIn),
phenolphthalein (PhIn) and bromothymol blue (BBIn) in laboratory wastewater is a …

In view of increasing rate of lead pollution resulting from discharge of lead containing
effluents by industries into the environment, this study was carried out to investigate the …

Iron (III) adsorption from aqueous solutions unto periwinkle shell carbon (PSC) was studied
using batch experiments. Activated periwinkle shell carbon was prepared (pyrolysed at 300° …

Wood Apple fruit shell. Carbonization was done at 3000C and 5000C for two hour and
allowed to cool at room temperature. Chemical activation was achieved by impregnating the …

Five composite samples of waste water were collected from waste water tank of a vegetable
oil refining company and were analyzed for physiochemical characteristics, heavy metal and …

Chitosan was produced by deacetylation of chitin with sodium hydroxide at a temperature of
117 C (Randal et al, 1979). In this study, chitosan was prepared from African giant land snail …

Abstract The adsorption of Cu2+, Cd2+ and As3+ ions on eggshell from aqueous solution
was studied under batch conditions at 30, 40, 50 and 60oC and concentrations of 10, 20, 30 …

Chlorine adsorption kinetics of activated carbons from Cattle bone, coconut-shell and wood
as influenced by mode of activation (heat and acid) were studied using a commercial …

This research was undertaken to explore the sorption potential of chestnut shell as suitable
adsorbent for scavenging divalent cations of lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) from Acid mine …
