Adsorption of Pollutants from Aqueous Solutions Using Activated and Non-Activated Oak Shells: Parametric and Fractional Factorial Design Study. Part I. Removal of Copper
Non-activated and chemically activated oak shells were evaluated for their ability to remove Cu 2+ ions from aqueous solutions. Batch adsorption experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of contact time, sorbent concentration, Cu 2+ ion concentration and the pH of the solution on the sorp...
