Adsorption of Lead Ions by Linde type F(K) Zeolite

Abstract

The Test was to examine the adsorption property of Pb(II) irons by Linde type F (K) zeolite. The zeolite was synthesized by fly ash. The adsorbent dosage, pH, reaction temperature and reaction time were investigated. The adsorption isotherm and adsorption kinetics equation were studied. The results showed the adsorbent dosage, pH, reaction temperature and reaction time had significant effects on the adsorption of Pb(II) irons. The removal rate was improved with the increasing of zeolite dosage. The saturated adsorption capacity was decreased gradually. The adsorption of Pb(II) irons tended to saturate when initial pH was 6. With the increasing of temperature, the equilibration time of adsorption was shorter. Langmuir isotherm was more applicable to explain the monolayer adsorption procedure of Pb(II) on Linde type F(K) zeolite. For adsorption kinetics, pseudo-second order model showed better calculation results.
