Utilisation of Exhausted Coffee Husk as Low-Cost Bio-Sorbent for Adsorption of Pb2. [PDF]
Trop Life Sci Res, 2022 This study utilised a bio-sorbent from exhausted coffee husk (ECHBS) for the removal of ion Pb2+ from an aqueous solution. Four different activation methods were conducted by chemical activation with KOH, H3PO4, ZnCl2, and without chemical activation. In addition, the influence of process parameters such as heating temperature, heating time and heating

Bio-sorbents: A Novel Technology to Mitigate Heavy Metal Pollution
International Journal of Plant & Soil Science, 2023 The health of living beings is seriously threatened by the toxicity and bioaccumulation tendency of heavy metals in the environment. Heavy metals cannot be broken down by chemical or biological processes, unlike organic pollutants. They can therefore only be changed into less dangerous species.

Heavy metal removal from industrial effluent using bio-sorbent blends [PDF]
SN Applied Sciences, 2019 There is extensive literature on the use of adsorbents derived from waste to treat industrial effluents containing heavy metal ions. However, there is limited information on the use of adsorbent blends. This is applicable for treating effluents which contain a number of heavy metals, so any one single adsorbent may not be suitable for achieving high ...
