An analysis was made of the purification efficiency of three-component model solutions containing various amounts of iron, copper and nickel ions, and industrial wastewater containing the same amount of the above ions, using a sorbent obtained from sludge from a water treatment site. It has been established that in three-component model solutions, depending on the initial concentration, the efficiency of purification from iron ions is from 40 to 90 %, copper ions from 80 to 100 %, nickel ions from 90 to 100 %. In industrial wastewater, the efficiency of cleaning from iron ions is above 50 %, copper ions above 70 %, nickel ions from 60 to 80 %, depending on their initial concentration. It is shown that the use of this sorbent is promising for use in industrial enterprises both at the initial and final stages of wastewater treatment from iron, copper and nickel ions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
