| dc.description.abstract | The kaolin was found to have adsorption capacity for Pb(II), Cr(III), Zn(II) and Co(II). Towards this aim, batch adsorption experiments were carried out and the effects of various parameters on this removal process have been investigated. The effects of solution pH, dose of kaolin loading, contact time, temperature and initial metal concentration were examined. Adsorption was decreased with increasing temperature for all studied metals. The Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption models were used for mathematical description of the adsorption equilibrium. Equilibrium data was fitted to the Langmuir model in the concentrations of 10-100 mg L-1 at 293 and 313 K. Based on the Langmuir isotherm plots, the maximum adsorption capacity value was calculated to be 30.89 mg g-1 for Cr(III), 30.49 mg g-1 for Pb(II), 30.30 mg g-1 for Zn(II), and 27.70 mg g-1 for Co(II) at 293 K. Various thermodynamic parameters, such as ?G°, ?H°, and ?S°, were evaluated with results indicating that this system was spontaneous reaction and kinetically suited to pseudosecond order model. Adsorption ability of kaolin decreased in the order Cr(III) > Pb(II) > Zn(II) > Co(II). The adsorption capacities of kaolin decreased in the order ZnCl2 activation > NaOH activation > H2SO4 activation > native kaolin. | en_US |
