The corresponding values for furnace slag were 4.3 to 5.2 mg/g, and the order of adsorption capacities was Pb, Cu, Cd > Cr > Zn. Fixed-bed column study on furnace slag/sand mixture (1:1 w/w) revealed that the adsorption capacities were generally less in the mixed metal system (1.1-2.1 mg/g) than in the single metal system (3.4-3.5 mg/g). The data for both systems fitted well to the Thomas model, with the adsorption capacity being the highest for Pb and Cu in the single metal system and Pb and Cd in the mixed metal system. Our study showed that fly ash and blast furnace slag are effective low-cost adsorbents for the simultaneous removal of Pb, Cu, Cd, Cr and Zn from water.]]> Thu 28 Oct 2021 13:03:23 AEDT ]]> Enhanced removal of nitrate in an integrated electrochemical-adsorption system https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:34023 Fri 01 Feb 2019 10:37:19 AEDT ]]>
