Development of composition and study of sorbent properties based on saponite

The development of a comprehensive approach to preventing the pollution natural objects is necessary due high requirements environmental legislation for discharge industrial wastewater. Adsorbents are used in various industries extract heavy metals from In this study possibility using saponite clay as raw material production sorbent extraction copper ions Cu2+ wastewater considered, recipe and technology developed, its chemical composition established. It has been established that optimum temperature heat treatment corresponds 550 ºC, since at extrudates acquire strength (strength 34.1 kg/mm2) textural properties (specific surface area pellets 22.803 m2/g), allowing them be sorbents. kinetics molecular adsorption was studied model solutions (II) sulfate. efficiency 93 %. Extraction plating reaches 94 SEM results confirm presence metal on surface.
