Nickel(II) Ion Adsorption onto Activated Carbon. Relationship between Physicochemical Properties and Adsorption Capacity

The adsorption of nickel(II) ions from aqueous solution onto various forms of granular activated carbon, GAC, has been studied. Thus, GAC was heat-treated at 900 °C (GAC 900), oxidized with HNO 3 (GACox), and this material subsequently heat-treated in an inert atmosphere at 450 °C and 750 °C (GACox...
