COCONUT HUSK CHAR BIOSORPTIVITY IN HEAVY METAL DIMINUTION FROM CONTAMINATED SURFACE WATER
Applicability of coconut husk char in heavy metal removal was examined in the study. The surface morphology and elemental compositions of the char was investigated with SEM-EDX machine. Heavy metals sorption on 100 g of the char dosage was studied under five different contact times in the column ex...
