Charcoal from vegetable wastes showed good adsorbent properties for lead-contaminated water. Adsorption capacity at equilibrium was about 10 and 20 mg/g at 50 and 100 mg/L Pb, respectively. Breakthrough curves highlighted longer operation times of column plant filled with charcoal mixed sand than with sand only.
