摘要
Our aim was to test how MWCNTs can be used as a new adsorbent for mercury(II). Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) have been used for removal of mercury from aqueous solutions. Mercury removal from aqueous solutions by batch adsorption was investigated. Equilibrium isotherms, such as Freundlich, Langmuir, Temkin, Harkins-Jura, were tested. Kinetic studies based on Lagergren first-order, pseudo-second-order and Elovich rate expressions were done. The batch experiments were conducted at three different temperatures (17, 27 and 37 °C) and different pHs of the initial solution. Error function analysis shows that mercury(II) removal obeys pseudo-second order kinetics and Freundlich isotherm equation. Finally, the effects of solution pH and temperature on the adsorption were studied.
