Utilization of low-cost watermelon rind for efficient removal of Cd(II) from aqueous solutions: Adsorption performance and mechanism elucidation

Utilization of low-cost watermelon rind for efficient removal of Cd(II) from aqueous solutions: Adsorption performance and mechanism elucidation

Recycling of agricultural waste as adsorbents for pollutant removal realizes “Waste to Resource”. This study utilized an abundant fruit waste material, watermelon rind (WR), to remove Cd(II) from aqueous solutions (Cd(II) solution in distilled deionized water) in a batch mode, and the underlying ads...
