Agricultural waste of sugarcane bagasse as efficient adsorbent for lead and nickel removal from untreated wastewater: Biosorption, equilibrium isotherms, kinetics and desorption studies

The aim of this study was to evaluate the removal of Pb (II) and Ni (II) from untreated waste water using sugarcane bagasse and possible desorption of the metal ions from the adsorbent for effective re-use. The effects of pH (4-6), temperature (30−70 °C), contact time (30−150 min) and adsorbent dosa...
