Factors affecting the removal of selected heavy metals using a polymer immobilised sphagnum moss as a biosorbent
A hydrophilic polyurethane foam was used to immobilise dried sphagnum moss as a polymer/biomass matrix. This was then tested for its ability to remove Cu(II), Zn(II) and Pb(II) from aqueous solution. Further selected experiments using copper looked at factors which it was thought might affect the pe...
