Adsorption of heavy metal using mesoporous silica / Elham O.S.J ... [et al.]

Heavy metals such as Pb, Zn, Ni, Cr are discharged into water from various industries which they can be toxic or carcinogenic in nature and can cause severe problems for humans and aquatic ecosystems. The pollution of water is now being an environmental problem of global concern and efforts are bein...

To overcome the problems, the present study was undertaken to explore the efficiency of heavy metal adsorption by mesoporous silica at the concentration of 30 ppm of Zinc and Lead.
