Insight into copper and nickel adsorption from aqueous solutions onto carbon-coated-sand: Isotherms, kinetics, mechanisms, and cost analysis
This study investigated the use of carbon-coated-sand (CCS), as a more sustainable alternative to activated carbon (AC), for the removal of Ni2+and Cu2+ ions from an aqueous solution. The CCS was synthesized from sugar and sand without any additional binders and then activated using 0.1 M H2SO4 to f...
