摘要
Fluoride (F) sorption by acidified montmorillonite, montmorillonite and kaolinite has been investigated as a function of period of agitation, pH, initial fluoride concentration and clay amount. In case of montmorillonite and kaolinite, F sorption is insignificant at pH > 7, while it is maximum at pH 4. Enhanced F sorption by acidified montmorillonite is noted at pH < 10, maximum being at pH 6. Significant concentration of Al3+,Fe3+ and silica are released from acidified montmorillonite lattice (pH ≈ 2; 1:10 w/v), which decreased considerably owing to the formation of hydroxy (Al and Fe) silicates on subsequent base addition. Soluble fluoro-complexes at pH ≈ 2 and chemical interaction of F with hydroxy (Al and Fe) silicates at pH > 4, are potent sink for F in case of acidified montmorillonite. Soluble fluoro-complexes are also detected in case of montmorillonite and kaolinite at pH ≈ 4. Saturation indices (SIs) for acidified montmorillonite, over the studied pH range (2–10) has also been computed.
