by Víctor Vázquez, Jesus L Valenzuela, Jose Parga

In the present work, the removal of lead and cadmium, metals highly hazardous to humans and the environment, from a standard solution using bovine bone as a natural adsorbent is presented. Bone is mainly constituted by calcium apatite known as hydroxyapatite (HAP), which is a transparent-translucent solid and poorly soluble in water.
