Copper Cu (II) is one of the toxic contaminants of heavy metal in wastewater. The performance of activated carbon (AC) produced from Cucurbita Pepo.L seed as an adsorbent for the removal Cu is presented in this paper. The preparation of CPSAC uses 2-step physical activation assisted by microwave and CO2. The effect of contact time and initial concentration were examined. The batch study was conducted, and the data shows that the absorption was plotted better by using Langmuir isotherm.
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.
