The removal of Cd (II) ions by rice husk biochar as adsorbent was evaluated through batch study. Activated biochar was prepared using the physicochemical activation method. Preparation was consisting of pre-impregnation of NaOH and nitrogen (N2) pyrolysis. The Influence of preparation parameters whi...
