Statistical analaysis for removal of Cadmium from aqueous solution at High pH

In the view of Cadmium (Cd) toxicity from human health, heavy metal concentrations in water are controlled by strict standards and should be reduced to the standards permitted. This study is concerning an approach of removing a heavy metal, Cd, from its aqueous solution by carbon nanotubes (CNTs) a...
