Comparative Study of Bivalent Cationic Metals Adsorption Pb(II), Cd(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) on Olive Stones Chemically Activated Carbon

Abstract: In this work the ability of olive stone activated carbon (COSAC) to remove Pb(II), Cd(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) metal ions from aqueous solutions was evaluated. The effect of initial pH, contact time and initial concentration on metal ions adsorption was investigated. The results indicated that pH 5 is the optimum value for metal removal. Adsorption kinetic rates were found to be fast; total equilibrium was achieved after 4 hours. Kinetic experimental data fitted very well the pseudo-second order equation and the… Show more

“…Moreover, k id value of 3.2479 mg/g min 1/2 has been obtained in the adsorption of phenol using active carbon from olive stones (Bohli et al 2013). The adsorption of P-nitrophenol using active carbon fibre and granular active carbon gave similar result obtained in this study with k id values of 8.924 mg/g min 1/2 and 11.91 mg/g min 1/2 , respectively (Nwosu et al 2017).…”

“…The bigger the ionic radius, the stronger the adsorption of the ion was since the hydration capacity of that ion is smaller, resulting in weaker binding of the ion and water phase. Also, the preference adsorption exhibited for Pb(II) over Cd(II) and Cu(II) ion may due to the difference hydrated energy as was found in the order of −1481, −1807, and −2100 kJ/mol for Pb(II), Cd(II), and Cu(II), respectively …”

“…In other words, Cu(II), Mn(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II) ions are more mobile in the bulk solution, and both activated and raw fly ash samples show less tendency to adsorb them (Bohli et al . ).…”
