Adsorption of catonic and heavy metal onto coconut husk as a low cost adsorbent was studied as a fuction of amount of adsorbent,Ph,contact time and concentration.it was found that percentage adsorption varied linearly with the ph and adsorption dose but varies nonlinearly with contract time.Coconut husk was collected near achlechwar temple(shiv temple) Gwalior m.p india. near achlechwar temple generated 2600kg of coconut husk waste per month which create tremendous problem in environment. As our honorable prime minister shri narendra modi more focus on clean and green india for this an effective adsorbent was developed by coconut husk waste which not only eradicate heavy metal but also removed harmful impurities from waste water. Adsorption is best way for effective purification and separation technique used in industry especially in wastewater treatments. Cost is an important factor for comparing the adsorbent materials. Therefore, there is increasing research interest in using alternative low-cost adsorbents. To removing this heavy metal activated charcoal as a good adsorbent but it is quite costly.The experiment result shows the maximum removal of copper by coconut husk adsorbent is 89%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
