The potential of using tartaric acid modified rice husk (TARH) as a sorbent for the removal of Cu and Pb from semiconductor electroplating wastewater was investigated. Application of Langmuir isotherm indicated that there was no difference in the sorption capacity of TARH for Cu and Pb in synthetic...
