Abstract: | Kaolin has been widely used as an adsorbent to remove heavy metal ions from aqueous solutions. However, the lower heavy metaladsorption capacity of kaolin limits its practical application. A novel environmental friendly material, calcium alginate immobilizedkaolin (kaolin/CA), was prepared using a sol-gel method. The e ects of contact time, pH, adsorbent dose, and temperature on Cu2+adsorption by kaolin/CA were investigated. The Langmuir isotherm was used to describe the experimental adsorption, the maximumCu2+ adsorption capacity of the kaolin/CA reached up to 53.63 mg/g. The thermodynamic studies showed that the adsorption reactionwas a spontaneous and endothermic process. |
