Abstract:In present work, comparative study of sorption potential of raw and chemically activated orange peel powder has been explored for the removal of arsenite ions (As III) from wastewater. Several operating parameters such as contact time, adsorbent dose, adsorbate ion concentration, solution pH as well as temperature were studied in batch reactor. Surface as well as physicochemical analysis of orange peel was done by using FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy), SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy), proxima… Show more
