Utilization of chemically treated cashew-nut shell as potential adsorbent for removal of Pb(II) ions from aqueous solution

Abstract In this study, cashew nut shells (CNS), waste from a cashew nut processing factory, have been used as an adsorbent for Pb(II) ions in water. Treatments of CNS with 1 M of H2SO4, HNO3, and NaOH solutions were performed to modify their surfaces and improve their adsorption capacities. Charact...
