Abstract

Introduction

Carbon is widely recognized as a unique element because of its versatile nature resulting in its variety of applications. The adsorption process is among the most effective techniques for the removal of many transition metal ions from adsorbent Kavat Shell carbon (KSC).

Methods

Activated charcoal is synthesized by a chemical activation technique using KOH as an activating agent. The objective of this research is to study the elimination of transition metal ion and their adsorption is discussed under various optimum experimental conditions. Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin adsorption isotherms fitted to the data well.

Results

The important scope of this research is to prepare microporous activated carbon from Limonia Acidissima by chemical activation and to investigate the concentration of metal ions.

Conclusion

Similarly, the surface morphological study was also examined Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and functional groups were analyzed using energy dispersive X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD) and Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy technique (FTIR), respectively.
