Uso da casca de coco verde como adsorbente na remoção de metais tóxicos

Abstract: Recebido em 20/6/06; aceito em 24/1/07; publicado na web em 24/7/07 THE USE OF GREEN COCONUT SHELLS AS ADSORBENTS IN THE REMOVAL OF TOXIC METALS. Green coconut shells were treated with acid, base and hydrogen peroxide solutions for 3, 6, 12 and 24 h for removing toxic metals from synthetic wastewater. The removal of ions by the adsorbent treated with 0.1 mol L -1 NaOH/ 3h was 99.5% for Pb 2+ and 97.9% for Cu 2+ . The removal of Cd 2+ , Ni 2+ , Zn 2+ , using adsorbent treated with 1.0 mol L -1 NaOH/3 h, was 98.… Show more

“…Table 5 shows adsorption capacity values for Cd 2+ uptake for various adsorbents. In general, modified coconut bagasse investigated in this study exhibited sorption capacity higher than most of the reported adsorbents (Jnr and Spiff 2005;Pasavant et al 2006;Sousa et al 2007;Guo et al 2008;Pehlivan et al 2008 and others).…”

“…Thus, agricultural residues seem to be preferred (Pollard et al, 1992;Nasernejad et al, 2005;Johnson et al, 2002;Horsfall et al, 2006) and the green coconut shells are a most appropriate example for the biosorption removal of dissolved metals (Sousa et al, 2007) and organics (Crisafully et al, 2007).…”

“…It represents an alternative low-cost (bio)adsorbent and may be used for the removal of pollutants (metal ions, dyes and other natural and inorganic substances) present in wastewater. The retention capacity of several metallic ions in aqueous solution has been previously reported using coconut fiber as the adsorbent [9].…”
