Kinetic, equilibrium, and thermodynamic studies of untreated watermelon peels for removal of copper(II) from aqueous solution
In this study, the watermelon peels (WP) were used as an adsorbent without any chemical or physical treatment for Cu2+ removal from the aqueous solution. Removal of Cu2+ has been evaluated with respect to initial metal concentration, contact time, pH, and temperature using batch-adsorption technique...
