CHANGE IN pH AND CONDUCTIVITY DURING THE RINSING AND THE BIOSORPTION OF COPPER IONS ONTO PUMPKIN PEEL
The changes in pH and conductivity during the rinsing of the pumpkin peel, and the biosorption of Cu2+ ions, were the subject of this work. The obtained data showed that the pH value of the solutions increased during the rinsing of the biosorbent, as a result of the transfer of H+ ions from the aqueous phase into the structure of the pumpkin peel. ...
