Sorption of copper metal solution by wetland soil

This study is to determine the equilibrium time and removal efficiency of copper by wetland soil. The wetland is located near the car park at College of Engineering, UNITEN. Wetland soil were collected randomly at a depth of 20 cm to 50 cm. Soil samples are then oven dried at 105 �C for 48 hours. Af...
