Abstract:The development of widely sourced and efficient adsorbents is crucial for the adsorption of lead from wastewater. A novel adsorbent, N-doped weathered coal (NWC), was prepared in this study using weathered coal as the precursor and triethylenetetramine (TETA) as the N-source. The adsorption performance and behavior of Pb(II) on NWC were investigated using batch adsorption experiments. The results demonstrated that NWC has an efficient adsorption performance towards Pb(II), with a maximum monolayer adsorption c… Show more
