Surface chemistry modifications of rice husk toward enhancement of Hg(II) adsorption from aqueous solution
The modified rice husks were characterized in terms of morphology (scanning electron microscopy), functional groups (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy), surface charge (pH(pzc)), and elemental composition which indicate the treatments that led to significant changes to its surface chemistry.
