Bio-sorption for tannery effluent treatment using eggshell wastes; kinetics, isotherm and thermodynamic study

Since, cobalt, zinc, mercury and lead ions are high toxic heavy metals; this work aims to investigate the efficiency of eggshell as a low cost sorbent for their ions from aqueous solution. Adsorption of heavy metals on surfaces of eggshell obeyed second order kinetics. Adsorption isotherm belonged t...
