Removal of metals from electroplating wastes using banana pith

Banana pith (Musacea zingiberales) was evaluated for its ability to sorb metal ions from electroplating waste and synthetic solutions under both batch- and continuous-flow conditions. Sorption was both pH and concentration dependent, with pH 4·5 being the optimum value. The equilibrium data followed...
