Removal of multi-metals from water using reusable pectin/cellulose microfibers composite beads

Pectin (Pec) and cellulose microfibers (CF) extracted from orange waste were combined to form composite beads with enhanced adsorption capacity. Such beads were extensively tested in the removal of multi-metal ions from water. A factorial design approach was conducted to establish the optimum condit...
