The Removal of Manganese (II) in Aqueous Solution by using Reduced Graphene Oxide
Journal Title: International Journal of Civil, Structural, Environmental and Infrastructure Engineering Research and Development (IJCSEIERD) - Year 2019, Vol 9, Issue 5
Abstract
Due to growing population, new industries are being set up and the production is being increased with better quality products in the market using new technologies. But at the same time rising pollution causing concern specially for heavy metals. These heavy metals are discharged as effluents by industries like paint, tanneries, electronic devices, etc. Since rising concentration of heavy metals in nature is major cause of concern specially in our aquatic system like lake, river and ground water, there are available methods for removing these metals but they are costly. A Nano-material called Reduced Graphene Oxide had been assumed as a potential material to remove heavy metal at comparably better rate than existing process. Therefore the removal rate of heavy metal Manganese(II) at different quantity of absorbent has been tested with Reduced Graphene Oxide which has given some interesting results.
