Study on Olea europaea as an Adsorbent to Remove Heavy Metal from Wastewater

Liquid wastewater is essentially the water disposal of community after pure has been used in a variety applications. In recent years, heavy metal concentrations, besides other pollutants, have increased to reach dangerous levels for living environment many regions. Among metals lead most damaging effects on human health. It can enter body through uptake food (65%), (20%) and air (15%). With this background certain low cost easily available biosorbent like Olea Europaea was reported study. The scope present study remove Lead from its aqueous solution using Resin as biosorbent. Langmuir, Freundlich, Tempkin Dubinin-Radushkevich (D-R) models were describe biosorption equilibrium EuropaeaResin biosorbent.The results showed that capacity more removal around 34.2 mg/g followed Langmuir isotherm. kinetic pseudo-second order rate expression found represent well with data
