Removal of Heavy-Metal Ions from Aqueous Solutions Using Activated Carbons: Effect of Adsorbent Surface Modification with Carbon Nanotubes

This paper describes the effect of surface nanomodification of porous adsorbents. Two commercial activated carbons (ACs), AG-5 and NWC coconut shell based, were used as adsorbents. The adsorbents were modified with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) by chemical vapour deposition. The CNTs were synthesized in t...
