“…Several investigators used low-cost industrial and agricultural wastes for heavy metal biosorption (Crini, 2005;Sud et al, 2008;Abdolali et al, 2014). Among these wastes, crab shell (Lee et al, 1997;Evans et al, 2002), activated sludge (Hammaini et al, 2007;Sulaymon et al, 2014), and rice husk (Wong et al, 2003;Chuah et al, 2005) deserves particular attention. Apart from being cheap and available for sustainable biosorbent production, these wastes generated from various industrial and agricultural activities found to possess excellent biosorption capacity and reasonable rigidity.…”
