Batch experiments using nano-composites achieved up to 95% removal of lead, zinc, and mercury from wastewater, indicating their potential effectiveness.
Key Points
Removal efficiency of lead, zinc, and mercury reached up to 95.01%, 92.85%, and 75.6% respectively with optimal conditions.
The optimal conditions included a contact time of 90 minutes, pH of 7, and a dose of 0.5 g/L for effective adsorption.
Batch experiments were conducted with synthetic wastewater to determine the best adsorption conditions for toxic ions.
These findings highlight the effectiveness of novel nano-composite materials in treating heavy metal contamination in wastewater.
