Removal Of Copper (II) And Nickel (II) In Aqueous Solution By Modified Rhizophora Apiculata Barks Adsorbent

Waste mangrove barks of Rhizophora apiculata has been chemically modified in different conditions to be used as adsorbents to remove Cu(II) and Ni(II) ions from aqueous solution. Rhizophora apiculata bark mainly consists of 53% cellulose, 48% lignin, 46% extractive and 13% ash content.Chemical modif...
