Conclusion
• Adsorption capacity of MAH is 114 mg/g and 103 mg/g for Cu and
Ni, respectively.
• Batch Study:
• Competitive adsorption study (to determine the specie with which
MAH has the highest affinity)
• Regeneration study (to understand the reusability of MAH)
• Coexisting study (to understand the effect of copresence of
typical electroplating effluent’s constituents)
• Material Characterization
• XRD (to identify the crystalline structure of MNP)
• XPS (to understand the chemical composition)
• SEM (to understand the surface morphology of MAH)
• TGA (to quantify the exact amount of MNP)
• Performance evaluation of MAH with real electroplating effluent
