Abstract:Removing heavy metal ions from water
is an important issue to improve
water quality. However, using cost-effective and more environmentally
friendly adsorbents to achieve efficient adsorption capacity remains
a challenge. Carbon spheres were prepared by the hydrothermal method
and then combined with sodium lignosulfonate to form a lignosulfonate
carbon (C/SL) adsorbent. C/SL achieved the adsorption of Pb
2+
and Cu
2+
after 60 min (the adsorption capacity was 281
mg… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
