As a natural biological adsorbent, shell powder is inexpensive, highly efficient, and does not
leave any chemical residue; thus, it can be used to remove contaminants from water. In this …

Equilibrium sorption studies of anionic species of arsenite, As (III) ions and arsenate As (V)
ions onto two biosorbents, namely, chitosan and nanochitosan, have been investigated and …

The objective of this work was to determine the retention of five metals on pine bark using
stirred flow and batch-type experiments. Resulting from batch-type kinetic experiments …
