Isotherm and selectivity study of Ni(II) removal using natural and acid-activated nanobentonites

In this research, natural bentonite and its acid-activated forms were employed as adsorbents for the adsorption of Ni2+ ions from wastewater. Natural bentonite was activated with 2 M sulfuric acid, 4.5 h and 95 °C (the best acid-activated sample with the highest adsorption capacity) and the other 6...
