Evaluation of kinetics and adsorption isotherms for the Elimination of Pb(II) from aqueous solutions using Aloe barbadensis Miller Leaf Powder

An adsorbent was developed from matured leaves of the Aloe barbadensis miller plant for removing Pb(II) from aqueous solutions. Adsorption was carried out in a batch process with several different concentrations of Pb(II) by varying amount of adsorbent, pH, agitation time and temperature. The uptake of the metal was initially very fast, but gradually slowed down indicating penetration into the ...
