Application of response surface methodology in adsorption of lead ion from laboratory simulated wastewater using Eucalpytus tereticornis leaves

AMINU Z. I^*, GALADIMA M.S, ISA M. T, AMEH A. O, SANNI M. I

This study is aimed at modeling of lead adsorption on Eucalyptus tereticornis (locally known as Turare) leaves from laboratory simulated wastewater through the application of response surface methodology (RSM). Batch studies were performed to evaluate the different parameters considered: contact time and adsorbent dosage. Central Composite Desig...

Bleaching of atili (blackdate) oil for use as white oil

MAINA N. S^*, AMEH A. O, EDOH O.

Atili (blackdate) oil was bleached in this research using three different adsorbents; acidic fuller’s earth, activated carbon, and the mixture of fuller’s earth and activated carbon. The adsorbents were compared to give the most suitable of the three. The bleaching process was carried out by agitation of varying amounts of the different adsorben...
