Removal of Congo red dye and Cd(II) and Fe(III) ions from aqueous solution using clay minerals: Equilibrium adsorption studies

This study was performed to assess the removal of dyes and heavy metals from wastewater using locally available natural clays. Modifications of two different local raw clays were carried out by acid activation. The characterization of the raw clay and modified clays were performed by FTIR spectrosco...
