Adsorption of Pb(II) Ions from Aqueous Solutions Using a Low Grade Iron Ore as an Effective Adsorbent

The use of banded hematite quartzite (BHQ), a low-grade iron ore, as an adsorbent for the removal of lead(II) ions from aqueous solutions was studied. X-Ray diffraction (XRD) studies of BHQ ore showed the presence of hematite and quartz as the major mineral phases, while FT-IR studies showed the pre...
