Low-cost aluminum and iron oxides supported on dioctahedral and trioctahedral smectites: A comparative study of the effectiveness on the heavy metal adsorption from water
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract Montmorillonite and saponite were used as raw material for a series of aluminum and iron oxides modified smectites. The structure and texture of adsorbents were characterized by XRF, XRD, ATR–FTIR, SEM and nitrogen adsorption, whereas sorption properties were characterized for As(III), Cd(II), Cr(III), Cu(II), Hg(II), Ni(II), Pb(II) and Zn(II), focusing our interest in a reasonable concentration range for the conditioning of drinking water (10–100 ppb). Carbon, commonly used for this purpose, has been used as reference material. Except for Hg(II), we found that the obtained materials show notably higher sorption capacities than carbon. Fe-modified smectites exhibit the best metal adsorption properties, followed by the natural ones, while Al-pillared clay minerals showed the lowest adsorption properties.
