Novel Application of Tagua Shell (Phytelephas aequatorialis) as Adsorbent Material for the Removal of Pb(II) Ions: Kinetics, Equilibrium, and Thermodynamics of the Process

Tagua shell is a material generated in the handcrafted jewelry industry, which is discarded since it does not have a specific use. The present study evaluates this material as an adsorbent for the removal of lead (II) in aqueous media. The adsorbent was characterized through the point of zero charge...
