Machine learning using random forest to model heavy metals removal efficiency using a zeolite-embedded sheet in water by N.D. Takarina, N. Matsue, E. Johan, A. Adiwibowo, M.F.N.K. Rahmawati, S.A. Pramudyawardhani, T. Wukirsari

“…Conversely, lead and zinc removal efficiency was influenced mostly by potential of hydrogen. The random forest model also confirms that the high efficiency of heavy metals removal (>60 percent) will be achieved at water potential of hydrogen ranges of 4.94–5.61 and temperatures equal to 29.1 degrees Celsius.CONCLUSION: In general, a zeolite-embedded sheet can adsorb diluted heavy metals from water because there are percentages of adsorbed heavy metals. …”
