Surface functionalized plant residue in cu2+ scavenging: Chemometrics of operational parameters for process economy validation
Wastes obtained from the nuts of dika fruits (Irvingia gabonensis) were treated with EDTA in surface functionalization for the adsorption of Cu2+. EDTA functionalized Irvingia gabonensis (EIG) showed strong stretching vibration of C=O. Morphological appearance of EIG showed fibrous appearance of agr...
