Type of data Table, image, figure
How data was acquired
  • –

    The uptake of Pb2+ by the adsorbent (qe) was determined based on the subtraction of the initial and final concentration of adsorbate

  • –

    Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy (Shimadzu, IRPrestige 21), scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray (SEM-EDX) spectroscopy (JEOL, JMS 5600, Tokyo, Japan) was used for determine the characteristics of the adsorbent

  • –

    The Pb2+ concentration measurement was performed by Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (Shimadzu, AA-7000)
Data format Analyzed
Experimental factors
  • –

    The treatment given to algae waste was drying under sunlight for several days

  • –

    The adsorbent of algae waste-bentonite was prepared from mixture of algae waste and bentonite that have been weighed in accordance with the ratio of 1:2

  • –

    Data of algae waste-bentonite were acquired for Pb2+ removal from aqueous solution
Experimental features The adsorbent of algae waste-bentonite for Pb2+adsorption from aqueous solution
