Ym. Xu et al., Preparation and defluorination performance of activated cerium(IV) Oxide/SiMCM-41 adsorbent in water, J COLL I SC, 235(1), 2001, pp. 66-69
By using the wetness impregnation-coprecipitation method, a new adsorbent,
cerium(IV) oxide coated on SiMCM-41 ((Ce)SiMCM-41), was prepared for remova
l of fluoride ions from water. Factors investigated were number of impregna
tions, Ce/Si ratios, concentrations of F- ions, pH values, and calcination
temperatures. The dynamics, isotherms, and mechanism of adsorption of F- io
ns were discussed. zool Academic Press.
