Isotherms describing physical adsorption of Cr(VI) from aqueous solution using various agricultural wastes as adsorbents

Various agricultural wastes such as peels of pea (Pisum sativum) pod, tea (Camellia sinensis), and ginger (Zingiber officinale) and banana (Musa lacatan) waste were used to adsorb Cr(VI) from the aqueous solutions.A comparative adsorption efficiency study for all these adsorbents was done in laboratory for various pH, adsorbent doses, initial chrom
