Ceramic-Supported Alginate Adsorbent for the Removal of Heavy Metal Ions

Hybrid alginate/ceramic support sorbents have been developed by the physical imbibing of an alginic acid solution into silica pores and γ-alumina microspheres. The metal ion-binding capacity of the prepared hybrids was examined by means of batch Cd 2+ ion adsorption experiments. In addition, since t...
