Removal of Heavy Metals by Natural Adsorbent: Review

Water pollution by heavy metals has been recorded as a major problem in the global context. It occurs due to the direct and indirect discharge of diverse chemicals into the water bodies without sufficient treatment to reduce and diminish the harmful compounds. Many methods and materials are used in...
