Characterization, kinetics and thermodynamics of Ag(I) sorption using novel sorbent: Dry wheatgrass.

In the present study, dried wheatgrass (DWG), an available and renewable biomass, was investigated as a novel Ag(I) sorbent. Sorption data was modeled to 11 different kinetic and diffusion models at different DWG concentration. Pseudo-second-order model fits the data most appropriately among these.
