Chromium (III) sorption from aqueous solutions using activated carbon prepared from cashew nut shells

Activated carbon prepared from cashew nut shells using potassium hydroxide activation at 850°C in N2and CO2atmosphere was used as an adsorbent for the removal of chromium ions from aqueous solutions. The adsorption of Cr(III) ions on activated carbon was studied. The effect of experimental parameter...
