Adsorption of Cd (II) ions on biocarbon prepared from Tridax procumbens

Abstract: Adsorption using low cost biocarbon prepared from Tridax procumbens has many advantages over other methods for heavy metals removal. Effect of pH, metal ion concentration, adsorbent portion and temperature on adsorption limit and percentage removal of cadmium from aqueous solutions using minimal effort adsorbents has been displayed in this paper.

Keywords: Cadmium, biocarbon, Tridax procumbens, Contact time.
