Fly ash is an important waste, produced in thermal power plants which causes very important environmental pollutions. For this reason the usage and evaluation the fly ash in various areas are very important. Nearly, 15 million tons/year of fly ash is produced in Turkey. In this study, usage of fly ash with diatomite and molasses for heavy metal (Cd) adsorption from wastewater is investigated. T...

in this study, the removal of cadmium and lead ions from aqueous solution by nanocrystalline magnetite was investigated. the nanocrystalline magnetite was synthesized by mechanochemical activation of hematite in a high energy planetary mill in argon atmosphere for 45 hours. the ability of the synthesized nanocrystalline magnetite for removal of cd(ii) and pb(ii) from aqueous solutions was studi...

In this research, commercial nano-clay (NC) was modified with TiO2 functional groups and characterized via XRD and FTIR methods. The modified nano-clay was applied as an adsorbent for the removal of cadmium from wastewater solutions. The effects of the operating parameters including initial pH, cadmium concentration and adsorbent concentration were analyzed by the Taguchi method. The...

The aim of this study was to remove Cd by ion-exchange resin Amberjet 1200H in flow condition. The adsorption characteristics of metal onto the resin were accurately described by Freundlich isotherms. The ion exchange of cadmium on resin follows pseudo-second-order kinetics. Ion exchange capacities of the cadmium on the ion exchange resin was studied in metal solution. The capacities of sorptio...

Cadmium pollution of the environment has become a serious problem due to the increasing consumption of cadmium by industry in the past 20 years. Cadmium is introduced into the environment from the effluence of electroplating industry, and in solid and aqueous dis‐ charges from mining operations. Increased environmental awareness has resulted in the promulgation of more stringent legislation in ...

Removal of cadmium from aqueous solution was studied; using platanus orientalis leaves (POL) and their ash in 2006 in Iran. Bach adsorption experiments were performed as a function of solute concentration, contact time, pH and ironic strength for the experiment. The effect of Ca , Mg , Na and K on adsorption was 2+ 2+ + then examined. The effect of this adsorbent on COD in aqueous solution show...

Abstraet--A laboratory study of cadmium exchangeability revealed large differences in extractable cadmium which are dependent on the exchange solution being utilized. The standard exchange solutions employed in this study were: N NaNO3, N NaOAc, N NH4OAc, NCaCI~, and 2N CaCI2, in order of increasing Cd removal. An interpretation of the chemical behavior of Cd and an experiment with mixed sodium...

This study was carried out to test the ability of a mixture of sand, cement and clay for immobilizing cadmium ions from leaching out into water resources. Various samples with different mass ratios for this mixture were tested to determine their efficiency for adsorbing cadmium. The compressive test, cation exchange capacity (CEC), adsorption equilibrium and leaching test were applied to each s...
