Use of Corn Cob as Low Cost Adsorbent for the Removal of Nickel (II) From Aqueous Solution
نویسنده
چکیده
The present study focuses on the use of Corn cob as an effective and efficient adsorbent for the removal of Ni (II) from aqueous solution. The influence of Physico-chemical parameters such as Adsorbent Dosage, Contact time, pH and Initial concentration has been examined in Batch studies. The initial and residual concentration of Ni (II) was analyzed using UVDouble Beam absorption spectrophotometer at 394 nm by which the percentage removal can be calculated. The equilibrium data onto the adsorption of Ni (II) was measured using Langmuir and Freundlich Isotherm model. The results revealed that Corn cob, a waste material have good potential as an adsorbent for the removal of toxic heavy metal like Ni (II) from Industrial waste waters.
