Journal ArticleDOI
Heavy Metals Removal Using Activated Carbon, Silica and Silica Activated Carbon Composite
TL;DR: In this paper, a batch of experiments were conducted to test the ability of activated carbon for the removal of lead, cadmium, nickel, chromium and zinc from water.
Journal ArticleDOI
Removal of Heavy Metals Using Nanostructured Graphite Oxide, Silica Nanoparticles and Silica/ Graphite Oxide Composite
TL;DR: In this paper, nanostructured graphite oxide, silica/graphite oxide composites and silica nanoparticles were used for the removal of the heavy metal ions from aqueous solutions by a batch adsorption method and have been modelled using classical Langmuir and Freundlich adsorization isotherms.
