Adsorption of aqueous Cd2+, Pb2+, Cu2+ ions by nano-hydroxyapatite: Single- and multi-metal competitive adsorption study

Abstract: Being an inexpensive but efficient adsorbent, hydroxyapatite is extensively used for decontaminating wastewater and soils polluted by heavy metals. However, its solubility and grain size can affect its remediation effectiveness. This study investigated the ability of nano-hydroxyapatite (nano-HAP) to adsorb aqueous Cd, Pb and Cu ions from single-metal and multi-metal ions reaction systems. Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm equations were employed to study the sorption constants. Based on the sum of squares erro… Show more

“…(ionic radius 0.74 Å ) [22] with bigger Pb 2? (ionic radius 1.01-1.40 Å ) [24] ions. In general, it is assumed that when a cation is replaced by other larger, the result is an expansion of the lattice and therefore both the interplanar d-spacing increases and the 2h is shifted to lower angle.…”

“…These minerals have commonly been suggested to be main solids limiting the dissolved forms of several metals in natural systems (e.g. Chen et al 2010). Notably, hydroxyapatite, which is a natural calcium phosphate mineral within the apatite group, may be an important solid for sorption in our study region.…”

“…The desorption studies indicated that most of the heavy metals desorbed at pH 2. Chen et al 39 carried out an investigation on competitive adsorption of many metals. Their investigation was focused on the heavy metals such as lead, cadmium and copper .They used nano-hydroxyapatite in single-and multi-metal competitive adsorption study.…”
