A review: a comparison of different adsorbents for removal of Cr (VI), Cd (II) and Ni (II)
Anja Pfeifer, Mojca Škerget
Abstract
A review of the studies dealing with the removal of chromium, cadmium, and nickel ions with different adsorbents published in the literature between 2014 and 2018 is given in tabular form, along with the adsorption conditions, adsorption isotherm, and kinetic models applied by the authors to model the experimental data and adsorption capacities. The review focuses on the efficiency of ion removal.
