Kinetic characterization of removal of As (III) by mixed adsorbents
نویسندگان
چکیده
Adsorption kinetics for removal of arsenic was carried out by red mud and its mixtures with haematite, china clay and fly ash besides china clay-fly ash at: adsorbate conc., 5.0 mg1; particle size of adsorbent, <53 μm; agitation rate, 220 rpm; pH, 8.0; and temp., 30, 40 & 50°C. Data fit into Lagergren equation and adsorption follows first order reaction kinetics. As(III) removal by adsorbents is diffusion controlled. A low value of activation energy indicates flat nature of energy barrier.

Jute modified has been used for adsorption of Cr (VI), Cd (II) and Pb (II) ions over a range ofinitial metal ion concentration. Adsorption process is done in batch mode. Adsorption isotherms ofthe heavy metals on adsorbents prepared were determined and correlated with common isothermequations. It was found that the Freundlich isotherm is better than Langmuir for explaining thebehavior of adsorp...

In this work, magnetically separable ZnO-ZnFe2O4-PPy nanocomposite as an efficient adsorbent was synthesized by two steps. At first, zinc oxide (ZnO) and ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles were synthesized using simple and facile precipitation method. Then, ZnO-ZnFe2O4 mixed oxide was modified by polypyrrole (PPy). The adsorbent was character...
