Abstract
This article reports, the removal of Ni (II) on Papayya Seed Powder (PSP) and Sweet lime Peelings Powder (SLP) as a function of pertinent variables. Adsorption kinetics data reveal the applicability Of Lagergren equation for adsorption on PSP and SLP. Experimentally measured values have been found to follow Langmuir adsorption isotherm. With these prelude studies an attempt has been made to investigate the effectiveness of low cost agro based dissipate materials in removing heavy metals. It is found that adsorption potential varies with pH, initial concentration, contact time and adsorbent dose. Out of two low cost adsorbents used in this study Papaya Seed Powder (PSP) is found to possess greater adsorption efficiency of Ni (II) ions than SLP under nearly identical experimental conditions.
