The experimental data of the removal equilibrium were correlated by either the Langmuir or Freundlich equations. Results indicate that the Langmuir model gave a better fit to the experimental data than the Freundlich equation. Maximum adsorption capacities were determined as 18.52 mg/g Cd and 19.92 mg/g Pb for natural calcite at 25°C, respectively.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesscadmiumleadremovaladsorptioncalciteArticle163467471
