Adsorption of zinc (Zn2+) from aqueous solution on natural bentonite

The adsorptive properties of natural bentonite in the removal of zinc (Zn2+) from aqueous solution were studied. The results show that the amount of adsorption of zinc metal ion increases with initial metal ion concentration, contact time, and solution pH but decreases with the amount of adsorbent a...
