REMOVAL OF METAL IONS FROM AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS USING ACTIVATED CARBON PREPARED FROM ZEA MAYS STEM

Activated carbon prepared from Zea mays stem using chemical activation was used as adsorbent for the removal of metal ions from aqueous solution. The results indicate that the adsorption of Pb(II), Cu(II) and Cr(III) ions is pH, contact time, and concentration dependent while the adsorption of Hg(II...
