Metal soprtion enhancement of rice hull through chemical modification

Various chemical modifications were attempted on rice hull in order to improve its metal sorption capacity. Ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) was found to give the greatest enhancement. Parameters investigated include pH, initial concentration, sorbent dosage and competition with other cations...
