Potential Of Modified Gambir As Adsorbent For The Removal Of Selected Heavy Metal Ions From Aqueous Solutions
In this study, gambir extracted and gambir pulp has been chemically modified with formaldehyde (FGA) and hydrochloric acid (AGPA), respectively. Adsorbents were physically and chemically characterized by FTIR, BET, TGA, SEM, EDS and pHpzc. The surface of FGA was found to be granular and honeycombed...
