Equilibrium, kinetic, and thermodynamic studies of lead ion and zinc ion adsorption from aqueous solution onto activated carbon prepared from palm oil mill effluent

TLDR
In this paper, an efficient activated carbon was prepared using palm oil mill effluent as a precursor, and the adsorption capacity of activated carbon for lead ion and zinc ion from aqueous media was investigated under equilibrium conditions between 303.15 and 353.15 K.
