Equilibrium isotherm analysis of the biosorption of Zn2+ ions by acid treated Zea Mays leaf powder

The potential of Zea Mays leaf powder for the removal of Zn2+ ions from waste waters was investigated using the Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich (D-R) adsorption isotherms. Batch biosorption studies were carried out in stopper Erlenmeyer flasks to optimize pH, contact time and biomass d...
