Efficient biosorption of Hg(II) over treated banana stems fibre

The potential of banana stem fiber (BSF) as a low cost biosorbent for Hg(II) removal was studied. HCl treatment increased the cellulose accessibility which led to an enhanced interaction of Hg(II) and BSF. Activation of BSF-HCl in vacuo at 373 K increased the maximum biosorption capacity from 28 to...
