PREPARATION AND CHARACTERISATION OF PLANTAIN WASTE BASED CELLULOSIC NANOCOMPOSITES FOR THE REMOVAL OF SELECTED HEAVY METALS FROM BATTERY EFFLUENT
ABSTRACT In this study, Ag NPs and Ag-CNCs impregnated on CNTs nano adsorbents were developed using a combination of green chemistry protocol and chemical vapor deposition techniques and subsequently characterized using, HRTEM, HRSEM, XRD, EDS and SAED. The adsorption capability of silver-carbon nanotubes (Ag-CNTs) and silver-cellulose nanocrystals are modified multiwalled ...
