Bimetal Adsorption by Cottonseed Carbon: Equlibrium and Kinetic Studies

The simultaneous adsorption of Pb(II) and Hg(II) on cottonseed carbon (CSC) was employed for the removal of these metals from wastewater. The influence of various factors such as agitation time, pH and carbon dosage on the adsorption capacity has been studied. Langmuir and Freundlich equation could...
