Rapid adsorption of copper(ii) and lead(ii) by rice straw/fe3o4 nanocomposite: optimization, equilibrium isotherms, and adsorption kinetics study

Rice straw/magnetic nanocomposites (RS/Fe3O4-NCs) were prepared via co-precipitation method for removal of Pb(II) and Cu(II) from aqueous solutions. Response surface methodology (RSM) was utilized to find the optimum conditions for removal of ions. The effects of three independent variables includin...
