The elution experiment result indicated that the adsorbed Cd ions was easily desorbed from the material with 0.1 mol·L^-1 HCl solution. Adsorption-desorption cycles showed the feasibility of repealed uses of the composited material. The adsorption capacities were influenced by pH and the initial Cd(II) concentration. The amount adsorbed was greatest at pH 6.5 and the initial Cd(II) concentration of 0.07 mg·L^-1, respectively. Nanometer AlO(OH) played a major role in the adsorption process, whereas the fiberglass and ACF were assistants in the process of removing Cd(II). In addition, the adsorption capacities for Cd(II) were obviously reduced from 128.50 mg·L^-1 to 64.28 mg·L^-1 when Pb ions were present because Pb ions took up more adsorption sites.展开更多
