Abstract
The adsorption of dimethyltin from a seawater matrix onto suspended pa rticulate matter was studied The influences of pH and salinity, adsorp tion isotherms at various temperatures, and the adsorption rate under certain experimental conditions were determined. It was found that the adsorption capacity was highest at c. pH 6 and decreased with increas ing salinity. The adsorption behaviour at various temperatures was des cribed best by a Langmuir isotherm. The adsorption capacity of dimethy ltin was higher in natural seawater than in artificial seawater at the same temperature.
