Efficient Adsorption of Chromium(VI) Ions from Aqueous Solution onto a Low-Cost Adsorbent Developed from (Wood Apple) Shell
The removal of chromium(VI) ions from aqueous solution was studied using Limonia acidissima (wood apple) shell activated carbon. The removal extent was found to be a maximum at a pH value of 2, with the lowcost adsorbent having an adsorption capacity of 13.74 mg/g. The material employed was characte...
