Adsorption of Cd(II) ions from aqueous solutions by Lalang (Imperata cylindrica) leaf powder: Effect of physicochemical environment

The adsorption of cadmium from aqueous solution with a plant waste particularly Lalang or Imperata cylindrica (IC) leaf powder was investigated. The effect of various operating variables mainly adsorbate concentration, adsorbent dose, adsorbent size, temperature and pH was studied. The adsorption of...
