Effect of montmorillonite content in natural Saudi Arabian clay on its adsorptive performance for single aqueous uptake of Cu(II) and Ni(II)

The effect of montmorillonite content on adsorptive performance of natural Saudi Arabian clay for aqueous uptake of Cu(II) and Ni(II) was investigated under kinetic and equilibrium batch studies. The clay and bentonite used were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Brunauer-Emmet-...
