The results indicated that the amount of adsorbed Pb^2＋ increased with the increase of Mn AOS in birnessites. The amount of Pb〉 adsorbed positively correlated with the amount of released Mn^2＋, H^＋, and K^＋ （r = 0.9962 〉 0.6614, n = 14, ct = 0.01）. The released Mn^2＋, H^＋, and K^＋ were derived mostly from the corresponding cations adsorbed on the vacant sites. The maximum amount of adsorbed Pb^2＋ increased with the increasing vacant cation sites, leading to an increase of the total amount of released Mn^2＋, H^＋, and K^＋, and the increased likelihood for two Pb^2＋ adsorbed in the region of one side of a vacant site.展开更多
