Leachate treatment-chitosan as an adsorbent for heavy metal ions
Leachate contains several of heavy metals which become potential pollution for water resources (ground and surface) and the soils. Chitosan reported to be an effective adsorbent to remove heavy metals in leachate. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of heavy metal ions...
