Isotherm Studies for the Sorption of Metal Ions on to Peat

The adsorption of five single-component metal ions, namely, copper, cadmium, cobalt, nickel and zinc, on to peat has been studied. Equilibrium isotherms were measured and analysed using three methods: Langmuir, Freundlich and Redlich–Peterson. Overall the Langmuir equation gave the best fit based on...
