Optimization and analysis of nickel adsorption on microwave irradiated rice husk using response surface methodology (RSM)

Background: The removal of heavy metals using adsorption techniques with low cost biosorbents is being extensively investigated. The improved adsorption is essentially due to the pores present in the adsorbent. One way of improving the porosity of the material is by irradiation of the precursor usin...
