Removal of Pb(II) from aqueous solution by natural and synthetic calcites

Removal of Pb(II) from aqueous solution by natural and synthetic calcites

A comparative evaluation of the adsorption capacity and kinetics of Pb(II) uptake by both synthetic and natural calcites has been undertaken using batch equilibration technique. The originality of the calcite materials was confirmed by XRD and elemental composition by XRF. The point of zero charge v...
