Comparative and competitive adsorption of heavy metals (Cd2+, Cu2+, Ni2+, Pb2+ and Zn2+) in aqueous medium onto chitosan-montmorillionite composite beads
This study synthesized a novel adsorbent by blending chitosan with montmorillionite. The adsorption properties of heavy metals viz. Cd2+, Cu2+, Ni2+, Pb2+ and Zn2+ from single and multi-ion systems in synthetic aqueous medium was investigated in a batch manner at 25 ˚C, agitattion speed of 50 rpm, s...
