Synthesis, characterization and cation exchange performance of chemically modified pineapple waste biomass for the removal of Fe(II) from water

A new biosorbent containing exchangeable calcium has been developed from waste biomass of pineapple fruit for Fe(II) removal by saponification with Ca(OH)2 in this study. Biosorbent characterizations and mechanism identification was done using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), en...
