Utilisation of rubber wood shavings for the removal of CU(II) and NI(II) from aqueous solution

The potential of heat and chemically treated rubber wood shavings (RWS) to remove Cu (II) and Ni(II) was evaluated at bench-scale by varying parameters such as initial Cu(II) and Ni(II) concentrations, contact time and adsorbent dosage. Maximum Cu(II) and Ni(II) uptake was achieved using NaOH-treate...
