Heavy-metal spent adsorbents reuse in catalytic, energy and forensic applications- a new approach in reducing secondary pollution associated with adsorption

Heavy metal ions are toxic causing a variety of health complications. Heavy metal ions mainly include Cr(VI), Hg(II), Pb(II), Cd(II), Cu(II), Fe(III) and Co(II). The adsorption technique is the most practical in removing metal ions from water since it is cost effective, simple to operate and has hig...
