Kinetics and isotherms of Cu(II) and Hg(II) adsorption onto iron modified montmorillonite / polycaprolactone nanofiber membrane

Kinetics and isotherms of Cu(II) and Hg(II) adsorption onto iron modified montmorillonite / polycaprolactone nanofiber membrane

Exposure to toxic concentrations of Cu(II) and Hg(II) ion continues to increase in developing countries due to rapid industrialization. Because of their high solubility in water, Cu(II) and Hg(II) ions from mining and urban runoffs can easily contaminate various water sources. An adsorbent for Cu(II...
