Activated carbon from Luffa cylindrica doped chitosan for mitigation of lead(<scp>ii</scp>) from an aqueous solution

Abstract

The present study is concerned with the batch adsorption of toxic lead(<sc>ii</sc>) ions from an aqueous solution using activated carbon from a <italic>Luffa cylindrica</italic> fibers doped chitosan (ACLFCS) biocomposite as an adsorbent.
