Add to ORKGThe ability of activated carbon prepared from palm oil empty fruit bunches (EFB) to remove mercury (Hg(II)), lead (Pb(II)) and copper (Cu(II)) from aqueous solutions was investigated. The EFB activated carbon was produced by using chemical and physical activation processes. The adsorption capacity was determined as a function of adsorbate initial concentration and adsorbent dosages. Adsorption isotherms of the studied metals on adsorbent were determined and compared with the Langmuir and Fruendlich isotherm models. The EFB activated carbon showed excellent efficiency in removing Pb(II) and Hg(II) with percentage of removal up to 100% even at low adsorbent dosage. In contrast, only 25% removal of Cu(II) by the EFB activated carbon was obse...
