Adsorption Equilibrium for Heavy Metal Divalent Ions (Cu2+, Zn2+, and Cd2+) into Zirconium-Based Ferromagnetic Sorbent

Study of the selection mechanism of heavy metal (Pb2+, Cu2+, Ni2+, and Cd2+) adsorption on clinoptilolite.

The study was carried out on the sorption of heavy metals (Ni2+, Cu2+, Pb2+, and Cd2+) under static conditions from single- and multicomponent aqueous solutions by raw and pretreated clinoptilolite. The sorption has an ion-exchange nature and consists of three stages, i.e., the adsorption on the surface of microcrystals, the inversion stage, and the moderate adsorption in the interior of the mi...

Effective Removal of Heavy Metal Ions Zn2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, Cr3+ from Aqueous Solution by Synthetic Superabsorbent Polymer

Heavy  metal  pollution  is  propagating  throughout  the  world  with  the  enlargement  of  industrial activities.  The  elimination  of  heavy  metal  ions  from  industrial  wastewaters  has  drawn  much attention  because  of  the  hazardous  effects  of  the  heavy  metal  ions  on  different  organisms. According to these facts, poly (2, 2, 3, 3- tetracyanocyclopropyl) phenyl acryl...

Adsorption–desorption of heavy metal ions

Adsorption and desorption studies on different types of adsorbents, including natural materials such as teak tree bark powder, rice husk, natural bentonite, different algae like Ecklonia maxima, Escherichia coli, Ascophyllum nodasum, Rhizopus nigricans, Cladophora fascicularis, goethite and soils of three nuclear power plant and artificial materials such as Fe oxide-coated sand, goethite pretre...

Adsorption Characteristics of Tannin for Heavy Metal Ions

Tannins gel was investigated as an adsorbent for heavy metal ions, such as lead, cadmium, copper, and others. The gel used in the present work was made by Mitsubishi Nuclear Fuel Co. Ltd. (MNF). It was found that the gel showed high adsorption capacity of heavy metal ions and the adsorption isotherms were correlated well by the Langmuir equation. The maximum adsorption capacity was influenced b...
