Real-time determination of kinetics of adsorption of lead(II) onto palm shell-based activated carbon using ion selective electrode
TL;DR: It was found that increases in initial Pb(II) concentration and agitation speed resulted in higher initial rate of adsorption, and it was suggested that chemisorption was the rate-controlling step for Adsorption of Pb (II) onto PSAC since the adsorptive kinetics data fitted both the pseudo second-order and Elovich models well.

Biosorption of cadmium by biomass of brown marine macroalgae
TL;DR: Five different brown seaweeds, Bifurcaria bifurcata, Saccorhiza polyschides, Ascophyllum nodosum, Laminaria ochroleuca and Pelvetia caniculata were studied for their ability to remove cadmium from aqueous solution and the effect of pH on biosorption was also studied.
