Abstract:In this study, series of experiments were carried out in batch in order to examine the possibility of thiourea doped silica composite for the removal of lead under different experimental conditions. Adsorption of lead (II) ions was investigated with the difference in the parameters of pH, contact time, and lead (II) ions concentration. The adsorption of lead followed pseudo-second-order rate kinetics. Intra-particle diffusion was established not to be the sole rate-controlling step. Thermodynamic studies tell … Show more
