  • Adsorption and desorption studies of heavy metals on to coconut shell char 
    Abesekara, MS; Kosvinna, KNR; Amarasinghe, BMWPK [Conference-Extended-Abstract]
    Heavy metals in wastewater can be removed by several methods including adsorption. Activated carbon (AC) is widely used, but expensive adsorbent. Since AC derived from coconut shell (CS) is a good adsorbent, coconut shell ...
  • Multicomponent adsorption of heavy metals onto coconut shell char: kinetic and equilibrium study 
    Perera, RACD; Madushika, MHG; Anupama, KADU; Amarasinghe, BMWPK [Conference-Extended-Abstract]
    Coconut shell (CS) charcoal is a potential low-cost adsorbent. Ni(II) and Zn(II) ions in wastewater removal by adsorption is studied in the research using CS char. Results showed that, the maximum adsorption capacity for ...
  • Purification of automobile wastewater using fly ash-clay composite 
    Anushan, RGS; Dasanayake, PMK; Karunarathna, CNW; Amarasinghe, BMWPK [Conference-Extended-Abstract]
    The adsorbent fly ash-clay composite was tested for the treatment of automobile service station wastewater. Batch experiments were conducted to establish the adsorption column parameters which were optimum fly ash to ...
