Sequestration of cadmium ions using titanate nanotube

TL;DR: Titanate nanotubes synthesized from alkali hydrothermal route, with high BET surface area, were used as an effective sorbent to remove cadmium ions from water and found that CDMUSIC was able to fit the experimental data best when inner-sphere complexation and ion-exchange were applied together.
