Abstract

ADSORPTION OF LEAD FROM AQUEOUS SOLUTION BY USING LOW COST ADSORBENT PREPARED FROM WOOD APPLE SHELL ACTIVATED CARBON (WASAC)

Anjana Gupta*, Animesh Agarwal and Nitin Kumar Agrawal

ABSTRACT

In the present study, Wood Apple Shell Activated Carbon (WASAC) was used to remove Pb(II) from aqueous solution, using batch experiment. Various adsorption parameters such as pH, initial concentration of Pb(II), adsorbent dose, contact time, have been studied. The experimental data fitted well to Langmuir isotherm. The kinetic process of Pb(II) adsorption on WASAC was found to fit the pseudo- second order model. The result shows that WASAC is a good low cost adsorbent as 81% removal of Pb(II) is achieved in the present study.
