Removal of Pb2+ ions from aqueous medium by using chitosan-diatomite composite: equilibrium, kinetic and thermodynamic studies
In this study, a novel, low-cost, natural, and highly effective adsorbent, chitosan (Ch) -diatomite (D) composite was synthesized. Ch-D composite was tested as an effective and alternative adsorbent for the removal of Pb2+ ions. The Ch-D composite was characterized by FT-IR, SEM-EDX and PZC analyses...
