Actually i'm trying to utilize different biomass for heavy metal and dye removal from industrial effluent.

Safia Taleb

Hi, Karim,

For your research, you can construct the model of Langmuir-Freundlich isotherm and others such as Temkin and Dubinin–Radushkevich. Please see this paper, for exemple!
