In this study, cobalt oxide (Co3O4) was prepared by thermolysis of cobalt (II) oxalate at ???????????? This oxide was characterized by IR spectroscopy, XRD (X-ray diffraction) and SEM (scanning electron microscopy). The adsorption of phenol and lead (II) ions, both singly and in combination, by obtained and characterized Co3O4 was studied in batch system. Kinetic and equilibrium experiments were conducted to study the effects of solid : liquid ratio, pH, contact time and initial concentration of the pollutants. Th...

Palladium is one of the precious metals which have great economic importance. It is used in many fields such as electrical and electronic industries, corrosion resistant materials, and jewelry due to their specific physical and chemical properties, catalysts in various chemical processes. Due to its importance and high price, it is essential to develop efficient recovery methods for this element especially from water containing trace amount of Pd. Therefore in this work we report studies regarding the removal of P...
