The sewage sludge and banana peel are typical solid wastes. In this paper, sewage sludge and banana peel blends were used as raw materials for the preparation of mixed waste biological carbon. Adsorption performance of Cu 2+ and Pb 2+ at different raw material ratios were investigated. The results showed that there is no linear relationship between the adsorption performance of mixed waste biological carbon on Cu 2+ and Pb 2+ and the raw materials ratios. In this experiment, the optimized adsorption performance highest Cu 2+ and Pb 2+ removal capacity over 90% when the raw material ratios of the sewage sludge and banana peel was 4:1.
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.
