Adsorption and Desorption Mechanism of Oil Palm Empty Fruit Bunch Grafted Polyvinyl Alcohol (OPEFB-g-PVA) Hydrogel in Nickel(II) Removal

Oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) fiber is a highly potential natural polymer to be used as efficient and low cost adsorbents of heavy metal cations from waste water. Oil palm empty fruit bunch grafted polyvinyl alcohol (OPEFB-g-PVA) was prepared as Nickel(II) adsorbent. The ultimate objective o...
