Synthesis and characterization of an activated carbon-supported silver-silica nanocomposite for adsorption of heavy metal ions from water
We report synthesis and characterization of an activated carbon-supported silver-silica nanocomposite (AC-Ag-SiO2) for removal of Cu2+, Pb2+, Cd2+ and Zn2+ ions from single and multi-metal aqueous solutions. Characterization experiments included Atomic force microscopy (AFM), Ultraviolet–visible spe...
