Adsorption behaviour of manganese (Mn2+) removal from aqueous solution using carbon nanotubes

Human activities are one of the biggest contributors to excessive manganese concentration in the environment. The proposed method to remove manganese in aqueous solution by using adsorption as in carbon nanotubes (CNT) at different parameters. Different pHs are pH 6.0, pH 6.5, pH 7.0, pH 7.5 and pH...
