Adsorption of Zinc and Copper Ions by the Solid Waste of the Olive Oil Industry
The adsorption capacity of dried olive oil husks (SWOOI) for zinc ions (Zn 2+ ) and copper ions (Cu 2+ ) was studied. It was verified that the Freundlich and Langmuir isotherms describe the adsorption of Cu 2+ and Zn 2+ ions reasonably well. Up to 90% of Zn 2+ ions and 80% of Cu 2+ ions were adsorbe...
