Organic waste materials and semi-products containing cellulose are used as low-cost
adsorbents that are able to compete with conventional sorbents. In addition, their capacity to …

Some kinds of natural organic materials have a potential for removal of heavy metal ions
from wastewater. It is well known that cellulosic waste materials or by-products can be used …

The adsorption of copper (II) ions from aqueous solution onto sawdusts from different kinds
of wood, pulp and Kraft lignin has been studied. The results of batch studies showed that …

Sugarcane bagasse (stalk) and straw (leaves), an agricultural waste, which had been
subjected to either an organosolv or organosolv-oxidative pretreatment were used for the …

This paper reports the potential of chemically treated wood chips to remove copper (II) ions
from aqueous solution a function of pH, adsorbent dose, initial copper (II) concentration and …

Untreated Pinus radiata sawdust was investigated for the removal of Cu+ 2 ions from
aqueous solutions. The biomass was characterized by Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass …

This study investigates the removing of Cu (II) using Pleurotus ostreatus fungal and
Pleurotus ostreatus spent mushroom compost. In these batch biosorption experiments, the …

Pollution of water by toxic elements is one of the major factors of concern for human health,
as well as for environmental quality, and draws a large amount of scientific attention. New …

Abstract n the last years, much attention has been focused on the use of low-cost adsorbents
for the removal of Cu (II) and Zn (II) from contaminated waters. In this context, we studied the …

The biosorption of copper (II) ions from aqueous solution by an unconventional adsorbent
maple wood sawdust was studied as a function of different environmental parameters such …
