Coconut Shell: A carrier for the removal of lead (II) from aqueous solution
نویسنده
چکیده
The studies on removal of Lead (II) were conducted using Coconut shell. Adsorption efficiency has been evaluated. The effect of pH, contact time, adsorbent dose, concentration of metal, particle size and temperature were studied. The result reveals that Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms are followed during adsorption process. Thermodynamics parameter indicates the feasibility of the process. Kinetic studies have been performed to understand the mechanism of adsorption. Column studies have been carried out to compare these with batch capacities.

Sorption of Lead (II) Ions on Activated Coconut Husk
Background: In recent years, various toxic chemicals/compounds have been widely detected at dangerous levels in drinking water in many parts of the world posing a variety of serious health risks to human beings. One of these toxic chemicals is lead, so this paper aimed to evaluate of efficiency coconut husk as cheap adsorbent for removal lead under different conditions. Methods: In the sprin...
متن کاملAdsorption of Basic Blue 41 from Aqueous Solution onto Coconut Fiber Particles
In this research, adsorption experiments were carried out for removal of Basic Blue 41(BB41) dye from an aqueous solution, using coconut fiber particles (CFP) as a low-cost biosorbent. The characteristics of coconut fiber particles weredeterminedwith a scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) techniques. The effects of initial pH, biosorbentdose, contact time,...
متن کاملRemoval of Cadmium and Lead Ions from Aqueous Solution by Nanocrystalline Magnetite Through Mechanochemical Activation
In this study, the removal of cadmium and lead ions from aqueous solution by nanocrystalline magnetite was investigated. The nanocrystalline magnetite was synthesized by mechanochemical activation of hematite in a high energy planetary mill in argon atmosphere for 45 hours. The ability of the synthesized nanocrystalline magnetite for removal of Cd(II) and Pb(II) from aqueous solutions was studi...
متن کاملRemoval of Lead Ions from Aqueous Solution by Sorptive-Flotation Using Limestone and Oleic Acid
A simple, rapid and economic procedure was presented to remove lead(II) from aqueous solution under the optimized conditions. It is based on the sorption of Pb2+ ions from aqueous solutions onto limestone fines (LS), which is an inexpensive and widespread over the globe, followed by flotation with oleic acid (HOL) surfactant. The different parameters (namely: solution pH, sorbent...
متن کاملAdsorption of Zn (II) from aqueous solution by using chitin extraction from crustaceous shell
Removal of toxic heavy metals from wastewater is an important environmental challenge. In this Study, Zn (II) removal from aqueous solution by chitin extraction from crustaceous shells (shrimp and crab) was investigated. The biosorption studies were determined as a function of contact time, pH, initial metal concentration, and the amount of adsorbent. Adsorption of Zn (II) increased with decrea...
