Abstract:The removal of cadmium(II) from aqueous solutions in a batch system was conducted by using an agri-waste biomass Jute Stick Powder (JSP). To optimize parameters like metal concentration, solution pH, adsorbent amount, contact time and agitation speed, batch experiments were conducted. Further experiments were performed, using optimized conditions at pH 4.5, adsorbent dosages of 0.5 g/100 mL, a contact time of 60 min and shaking speed of 180 rpm. Favorable adsorption occurred at around pH 4.5, with a maximum ad… Show more
