Elimination of Cd2+ and Mn2+ from Wastewaters Using Natural Clinoptilolite and Synthetic Zeolite P
Authors
Abstract:
This study deals with the uptake of Cd2+ and Mn2+ ions from contaminated water using two Iranian natural clinoptilolite-rich tuffs from Meyaneh (Z-m), and Semnan (Z-s) regions , and a synthetic zeolite-P from Z-m sample (Z-P) under static (batch operation) and dynamic (column operation) conditions. To investigate the selectivity of the zeolites toward Cd2+ and Mn2+ cations, the ion exchange isotherms were constructed at 298K. According to the data obtained for both cations, the following general trend in distribution coefficient (Kd) and consequently in selectivity was achieved for the investigated exchangers: Z-P>>Z-m> Z-s.

Background: Surface water and groundwater pollution with various forms of nitrogen such as ammonium and nitrate ions is one of the main environmental risks. The major objectives of this study were to evaluate the capacity of natural zeolite (clinoptilolite) to remove NO3- and NH4+ from polluted water under both batch and column conditions. Methods: The laboratory batch and column experiments we...

The potential use of Croatian natural zeolite clinoptilolite as alternative adsorbents for removal of enrofloxacin (ENRO) as model pollutant was studied in a batch system. The influence of contact time and initial ENRO concentration on the sorption process was investigated. The percentage removal of ENRO from aqueous phase decreased with an increase in initial concentration. The experimental da...

introduction industrialization and urbanization of societies have caused many environmental problems. therefore, environmental protection has recently become highly important. water resources are particularly of high risk of pollution from industrial waste disposal to river, surface, and ground water, and also from discharge of water to municipal waste water collection systems. these effluents ...
full textRemoval of cationic surfactants from water using clinoptilolite zeolite
Batch and column experiments were conducted to evaluate the efficiency of a clinoptilolite zeolite as an inexpensive sorbent material to remove cationic surfactant from water. With an initial surfactant concentration greater than its critical micelle concentration, the removal of surfactant is achieved by admicellar sorption onto the zeolite surface. Although the sorption capacity of hexadecylt...
