Removal of Heavy Metal Ions from One- and Two-Component Solutions via Adsorption on N-Doped Activated Carbon

This paper deals with the adsorption of heavy metal ions (Cu<sup>2+</sup> and Zn<sup>2+</sup>) on the carbonaceous materials obtained by chemical activation and ammoxidation of Polish brown coal. The effects of phase contact time, initial metal ion concentration, solution pH,...
