摘要
The aim of this work is to study the performances of removal of hexavalent chromium from aqueous solution by three different oxy-hydroxides: hematite, goethite and alpha-alumina. Batch experiments were conducted to measure the effects on adsorption of Cr(VI) of different parameters such as pH of the medium, ionic strength, and initial concentration. Results showed that the adsorption of Cr(VI) depends strongly on the pH, but is independent of ionic strength for hematite and goethite. For a-alumina, adsorption is strongly dependent on pH values and ionic strength. Equilibrium studies showed that Cr(VI) had a high affinity in an acidic medium, but decreased as solution pH increased. Equilibrium isotherms were measured experimentally. Results were analyzed by the Langmuir and Freundlich equations using linearized correlation coefficient at room temperature. The characteristic parameters for each isotherm have been determined. Langmuir equation was found to fit the equilibrium data for Cr(VI) adsorption. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
