Natural and Chemically Modified Post-Mining Clays—Structural and Surface Properties and Preliminary Tests on Copper Sorption

Abstract: The structural and surface properties of natural and modified Pliocene clays from lignite mining are investigated in the paper. Chemical modifications are made using hydrofluoric acid (HF), sulfuric acid (H2SO4), hydrochloric acid (HCl), nitric acid (HNO3), sodium hydroxide (NaOH), and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), at a concentration of 1 mol/dm3. Scanning electron microscopy is used to detect the morphology of the samples. Nitrogen adsorption isotherms were recorded to determine the specific surface area (SSA), m… Show more

“…Meanwhile, heavy metals such as Cu are recognized as well-known pollutants in water 3 . Due to its toxicity and long-term environmental stability, Cu is highly detrimental and can threaten the health of humans and aquatic animals 4 , 5 . Therefore, from a public health and environmental conservation perspective, it is essential to eliminate and reduce the concentration of this metal in water.…”
