Removal of Different Kinds of Heavy Metals by Novel PPG-nZVI Beads and Their Application in Simulated Stormwater Infiltration Facility

Applied Sciences, 2019
Polyvinyl alcohol and pumice synthetized guar gum-nanoscale zerovalent iron beads (PPG-nZVI beads) were synthesized, and their adsorption towards Pb2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+ ions was evaluated. The adsorption kinetics of metal ions was well fitted by the pseudo-
