Utilizing sustainable hemp biomass as an eco-friendly for potentially toxic elements removal from water
Sevde Üstün-Odabaşı
Abstract:Potentially toxic elements in water is one of the important environmental problems. In this study, it was aimed to produce an environmentally friendly and cost-effective biosorbent using sustainable hemp biomass. The chemical composition of hemp biosorbents was characterized by FTIR, SEM, and XRD, and the results showed that the biosorbent could be a good alternative. A batch system was used to investigate the effects of initial concentration, pH, contact time, and temperature on the removal performance of Cu … Show more
