Removal of Cu (II) from aqueous solution using semi batch packed bed reactor with granular activated carbon

The use of low-cost adsorbents was investigated as a replacement for current costly methods of removing metals from aqueous solution [1]. In this work we studied the removal of Cu (II) using a semi batch packed bed reactor with granular activated carbon (GAC). The results showed that the designed semi packed bed reactor is suitable for removing of copper from aqueous solution.
