In this research paper, chemically activated Thuja Occidentalis leaves carbon (CATLC) is used as an adsorbent for the expulsion of Mn(II) from aqueous solution. CATLC is characterized by FTIR, SEM and EDX. The effect of pH, initial Mn(II) concentration, CATLC dosage and contact time on the adsorption performance of CATLC for Mn(II) ions are examined by batch studies. The results reveal that CAT...

In this research paper, chemically activated Thuja Occidentalis leaves carbon (CATLC) is used as an adsorbent for the removal of calcium (Ca2+) ion from aqueous solution. CATLC is prepared and characterized by FTIR, SEM and EDX. The impact of pH, adsorbent dosage, contact period and initial concentration of Ca2+ on the adsorption performance of CATLC for Ca2+ removal are examined by batch studi...
