Abstract
Corn cobs efficiency in adsorption of cadmium from its aquatic solutions was studied in the laboratories of Department of Fisheries and Marine Resources, College of Agriculture and Department of Marine Chemistry, Marine Science Centre during the period from January until June, 2018. Three parameters (time, pH and temperature) were tested for determine the removal ratio of cadmium by corn cobs. Its observed that the maximum removal ratios of cadmium ions 81%, 95.01% and 86.75% were 60 min., pH=6 and 25°C respectively.
