Abstract
Two types of brown coal, oxyhumolite and peat were studied with respec t to their ability to remove heavy metals from waste waters. The resul ts showed that the calcium loaded form of these materials can be effec tively used for metal extraction by ion exchange with calcium. The pro posed method can be recommended for concentrations of metals less than 10 mM.
