The characteristics of adsorbent, adsorption isotherms and the influence of adsorption time, temperature and pH were researched in this work. The results show that the mo- dified diatomite had a much better adsorption capability than the natural diatomite. The adsorption capacities of chitosan-modified diatomite for RR and DG were 94.46 and 137.0 mg/g, respectively. Both adsorption time and adsorption temperature provided a positive effect on the dye adsorption. Within the experimental pH range, the adsorbance was enhanced at lower pH but reduced sharply at high pH. On the basis of the experimental results and discussion, electrostatic attraction is considered as the main mechanism of this chemisorption.展开更多
