Removal of copper and lead ions from aqueous solutions by adsorbents derived from groundwater treatment sludge

Removal of copper and lead ions from aqueous solutions by adsorbents derived from groundwater treatment sludge

Heavy metals such as Cu and Pb ions are present in varying concentrations in the effluents of electroplating factories. In this study, novel adsorbents synthesized from groundwater treatment sludge (GWTS) were used to remove Cu and Pb ions from contaminated solutions. The effects of pH and temperatu...
