Utilization of Charred Water Hyacinth (Jalkumvi) as Biosorbent for Removal of Ca(II) Ion from Aqueous Solution

Abstract: A promising adsorbent, charred water hyacinth (CWH) for the removal of Ca(II) from the aqueous solution was explored by heat treatment of water hyacinth followed by chemical activation with acidified zinc chloride (ZnCl2). The adsorbent was characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electron dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy. Batch adsorption techniques were conducted for Ca(II) adsorption to assess the adsorption isotherm, effect of pH, contact time, initial Ca(II) concentration, adsorbent d… Show more

“…To minimize heavy metal ion content in wastewater, many techniques have been researched and used. Precipitation, ion exchange, adsorption on activated carbon, membrane processing, and electrolytic processes are examples of these techniques ( Marghaki et al., 2020 ; Ye et al., 2019 ; Bhujel et al., 2021 ). Most of the methods were determined to be expensive.…”
