REMOVAL OF LEAD FROM AQUEOUS SOLUTION BY ADSORPTION ON COCONUT COIR ACTIVATED CARBON

Activated carbon was prepared from coconut coir and adsorption of lead from aqueous solution by the activated carbon was examined. Batch adsorption tests showed that extent of lead adsorption was dependent on metal concentration, contact time. p11 and carbon (lose. Adsorption was low at acidic pH...
