Efficient Removal of Copper II and Lead II Ions from Single and Binary Solutions Utilizing Adsorbents from Olea Europaea Seed Shells

Chemically activated and carbonized adsorbents prepared from Olea europaea seed shell (OES) were assessed for their capability to remove Cu (II) and Pb (II) ions from their single or binary aqueous solutions. The usage of adsorbents derived from Olea Europaea seed shells was found to be an efficient method for the removal of both Copper II and Lead II ions from single and binary solution systems. The adsorbents showed high adsorption capacity and selectivity towards these two heavy metal ions. The removal process was quick and highly effective, with a removal efficiency of over 90%. The adsorbents also showed excellent stability, making them a reliable choice for industrial and environmental applications. Additionally, the use of these adsorbents resulted in minimal waste production, making the process environmentally friendly. Overall, the results of this study suggest that utilizing adsorbents from Olea Europaea seed shells is a promising approach for the efficient and sustainable removal of Copper II and Lead II ions from contaminated solutions.
