Studies on the uptake of lead and zinc by lignin obtained from black liquor – a paper industry waste material
Abstract
Lignin extracted from black liquor ‐ a paper industry waste material, has been characterized and used for the removal of lead and zinc metals. The uptake of lead is found to be greater than the uptake of zinc, and the sorption capacity increases with increasing pH. Adsorption on lignin follows the Freundlich and Langmuir models. Isotherms have been used to obtain the thermodynamic parameters of the process. Several polyhydric phenols and other substituted analogues may be involved in the uptake of metal ions. In comparison to other low‐cost adsorbents, the sorption capacity of the material, under investigation is found to be significantly high for the two metal ions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
