Bt. Zhu et al., PREPARATION AND PROPERTIES OF NONSTOICHIOMETRIC COMPOUND FOR REMOVAL OF LEAD IN WATER, Progress in Natural Science, 8(2), 1998, pp. 189-195
A new type of non-stoichiometric adsorbent for removal of lead is prep
ared by inorganic sythesization. This adsorbent can effectively remove
trance lead in neutral water under normal temperature with excellent
selectivity. The aquatic chemistry of Pb( II), optimal conditions for
the preparation of adsorbent, the adsoption isotherm of lead at pH = 7
, and the effect of pH values on adsorption were investigated. The ads
option kinetics of lead can be described by the pore diffusion control
mechanism.
