چکیده

in this study caulerpa racemosa has been characterized and used for the removal of cd(ii) and pb (ii) from aqueous solutions. the effect of ph, adsorbent dosage, contact time and temperature on adsorption process was studied in batch experiments. langmuir and freundlich models were applied to describe the biosorption isotherm of the metal ions by c. racemosa biomass. the adsorption data can be well described by langmuir isotherm. the monolayer biosorption capacity of c. racemosa biomass for pb(ii) and cd(ii) ions was found to be 34.5 mg/g and 29 mg/g, respectively. kinetics data of both metal ions were best described by pseudo second order model.the thermodynamic studies indicated that the adsorption was spontaneous and exothermic in nature. the analysis with ftir indicated that possible functional groups involved in metal sorption by this alga were o–h bending, n–h stretching, c–n stretching, c–o and s=o stretching.

Removal of Lead Ions from Aqueous Solution by Sorptive-Flotation Using Limestone and Oleic Acid

A simple, rapid and economic procedure was presented to remove lead(II) from aqueous solution under the optimized conditions. It is based on the sorption of Pb2+ ions from aqueous solutions onto limestone fines (LS), which is an inexpensive and widespread over the globe, followed by flotation with oleic acid (HOL) surfactant. The different parameters (namely: solution pH, sorbent...
