“…K F is a Freundlich constant that shows adsorption capacity on heterogeneous sites with non-uniform distribution of energy level and n value shows the intensity between adsorbate and adsorbent ( Table 6). The values of n prove that the adsorption of fluoride ions onto BPD-1, BPD-2 and BPD-3 are favourable as the magnitude lies between 1 and 10 ( Achak et al 2009). …”

“…Initially, there were large number of vacant active binding sites in these three adsorbents (BPD-1, BPD-2 and BPD-3) and consequently large amounts of fluoride ions were bound rapidly onto the adsorbent. The binding site shortly became limited and the remaining vacant surface sites could not be occupied due to the formation of repulsive forces between the adsorbate on the solid surface and the liquid phase (Srivastava et al 2006;Achak et al 2009). Besides, the mesopores are saturated at the initial stage of adsorption where the fluoride ions are adsorbed.…”

“…Maximum absorption ability of banana husks from Langmuir isotherm indicated that 1g of banana husks can adsorb 5.71 mg of cadmium and 2.18 mg of lead. Untreated banana peels (UTBPs), alkali-hydrolyzed banana peels (AlBPs), acid-hydrolyzed banana peels (AcBPs), and bleached banana peels (BBPs) were used as adsorbents separately for the elimination of Cr(VI) and Mn(II) from aqueous solution during batch experiments [64]. The maximum elimination capacities for Cr(VI) were UTBP (45%), AlBP (87%), AcBP, (67%) and BBP (40%).…”

“…The major advantages of biosorption over other conventional treatment methods include low cost, high efficiency, minimization of chemical and biological sludge, and regeneration of biosorbent by desorption techniques and possibility of metal recovery [13]. In recent years, certain raw waste products from agricultural produce, like cocoa shell [14], rice husk, [15], olivestone [16], garlic peel [17], sawdust [18], Brazilian pine-fruit shell [19] banana peel [20], Carica papaya (pawpaw) seed [21], Anabaena and Vetiveria [22] and date tree leaves [23], have been tested for removal of metals from effluents. The utilization of these raw plant materials as biosorbents has been limited due to the leaching of organic compounds such as, cellulose lignin, pectin and lignocellulose into solution.…”
