Removal of Cr(VI) from Wastewater Using a Natural Nanoporous Adsorbent: Experimental, Kinetic and Optimization Studies

In the present work, a nanoporous adsorbent prepared from low-cost neem bark is used for the removal of chromium (VI) ions from wastewater. The adsorbent is characterized by scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive spectroscopy, BET surface area, infrared analysis and X-ray diffraction analys...
