ADSORPTION BEHAVIOR OF Cd2+, Pb2+, AND Ni2+ FROM AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS ON CELLULOSE-BASED HYDROGELS

Removal of Cd2+, Pb2+, and Ni2+ from aqueous solutions using cellulose-graft-acrylic acid (C-g-AA) hydrogels was investigated. Various factors affecting the adsorption capacity, such as pH, time, initial ions concentration, and competitive ions, were tested. The results showed that the adsorption of...
