Biosorption of heavy metals from aqueous solutions with tobacco dust
A typical lignocellulosic agricultural residue, namely tobaccodust, was investigated for its heavymetal binding efficiency. The tobaccodust exhibited a strong capacity for heavymetals, such as Pb(II), Cu(II), Cd(II), Zn(II) and Ni(II), with respective equilibrium loadings of 39.6, 36.0, 29.6, 25.1 a...
