Silver ion adsorption using alkali and organosilane modified coconut pith biosorbents

The coconut pith biosorbents were prepared by modifying coconut pith (CP) with sodium hydroxide and bis(triethoxysilylpropyl) tetrasulfide to enhance its sorption capacity and selectivity toward silver ion [Ag(I)]. It was found that the Ag(I) sorption capacity of pure CP, CP modified with sodium hyd...
