摘要
Removal of Cu^2+, Cr^3+ and Cd^2+ from aqueous solutions by adsorption on montmorillonite modified by sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) and hydroxy-alumino-silicate (HAS) was investigated. Experiments were carried out as a function of solution pH, solute concentration, and time. The Langmuir model was adopted to describe the single-solute adsorption isotherm, in which the Langmuir parameters were directly taken from those obtained in single-solute systems. The kinetics of metal ions adsorption was examined and the pseudo-first-order rate constant was finally evaluated.
