ADSORPTION OF COPPER CU (2+) METAL ION FROM AQUEOUS SOLUTION USING SULPHURIC ACID TREATED MIMUSOPS ELENGI AS ADSORBENT
Abstract
The heavy metals were removed by the cost effect ive, high adsorption and time found process where conducted with the adsorption of Cu + from aqueous solution using activated carbon prepared from leaves of Mimusops elengi waste by acid treatment, In the present study on parameters such as effect of contact time init ial copper ions concentration, carbon dosage and effect of pH on the percentage removal have been conducted with Kinetics of the system was studied with linearised forms of Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin and DubininRaduskevich isotherms, the intraparticle diffusion, and Lagergren, Ho and Webber Morris models the data were discussed with the first order ,second order and psudo first order model of the kinetics has been illustrated significantly.
