Removal of Lead and Nickel Ions Using Zeolite Tuff

Abstract: The capacity of Jordanian zeolite tuff for the removal of lead and nickel ions from aqueous solutions has been investigated under different conditions, namely zeolite particle size, initial solution pH, initial metal ion concentration, slurry concentration and solution temperature. Equilibrium data obtained have been found to fit both the Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherms. It has been found that this zeolite (phillipsite) tuff is an efficient ion exchanger for removing both lead and nickel ions. Its… Show more

“…[2][3][4] Among several chemical and physical methods, the adsorption of heavy metals onto zeolites has been found to be superior to other techniques because of the capability of the zeolite to remove several cations simultaneously from an aqueous solution through ion exchange. [3][4][5][6][7] The history of ion exchange on zeolites has been reported by several authors. 3,[8][9][10] One of the important properties of zeolites is that they show selectivity in adsorption, i.e.…”

“…whether the majority of the sorption sites are inside the pores or on the external surface. Furthermore, relatively stronger interaction between heavy metal cations and the zeolite framework occur inside the porous structure rather than at the external surfaces [54]. Due to the weak interaction, heavy metal cations bound to external surfaces can be easily desorbed when the conditions of the system such as pH and temperature are changed.…”

“…Jordanian natural phillipsite has been reported to show the maximum adsorption of 1.31 meq g ¹1 of Pb 2+ ions, 8) although the adsorption of heavy metal ions on phillipsite-type zeolite has hardly been reported. The amount of Pb 2+ ions adsorbed on the FA-phillipsite in this work, about 2.90 meq g…”

“…7) One of the advantages of the composite containing sepiolite over single FA-derived phillipsite is its excellent molding-ability caused by the original nature of sepiolite. Sepiolite (Mg 8 Si 12 O 30 (OH) 4 ·12H 2 O) is a fibrous natural clay mineral showing significant H 2 O adsorption and has superior forming performance. 7) The FA-derived zeolites are generally obtained as powder form.…”
