The present study focuses on the effect of experimental parameters (pH, temperature, gel mass, metal concentration, contact time) on the performance of lead adsorption by polyacrylamide hydrogels. The results obtained showed that the retention of Pb 2+ ions is closely linked to these parameters. The adsorbent gels equilibrate with the metal solution after 180 minutes, and the maximum adsorption capacity is 442.31 mg/g. In addition, the adsorption obeys the pseudo-second-order kinetics and Langmuir isotherm. Desorption of the micropollutant retained by the hydrogel was also studied using 0.1 M of HCl solution. The desorption was rapid, and the efficiency exceeded 90% after a contact time of 90 minutes.

The main objective of this work is to study the thermodynamic and mathematical modeling of the adsorption of Co 2+ ions on biopolymers based of sugarcane bagasse (SCB) for to approximately the nature of the adsorption. The together of results obtained show that the adsorption process is favorable for a chemisorption and monolayer. Also, the adsorption process is expressed by the second order kinetic law. Thus the negative values of ΔG° and the positive values of ΔH°o pt for an endothermic and spontaneous process. Also, the positive values of ΔS° indicate the increase in the randomness at the solid / liquid interface during the adsorption of the Co 2+ metal ions.
