Adsorption of Cr(VI) from aqueous solution by adsorbent prepared from paper mill sludge: Kinetics and thermodynamics studies

In the present work, a new low-cost activated carbon was prepared from paper mill sludge in order to remove Cr(VI) ions from aqueous solution. The effects of adsorbent dosage, pH, contact time, metal ion concentrations, and temperature on adsorption efficiency were studied by experimental tests. The...
