Synthesis, Characterization, and Biosorption of Cu<sup>2+</sup> and Pb<sup>2+</sup> Ions from an Aqueous Solution Using Biochar Derived from Orange Peels

In this study, orange peel (OP) biochar was used as a bio-sorbent for the removal of copper and lead from wastewater in single and binary systems. The equilibrium and kinetic studies were conducted at a pH value of 5, which was the maximum adsorption pH value for both metal ions. The equilibrium stu...
