A surface ionization and adsorption model is used to simulate the adsorption of zinc species from aqueous solutions of varying pH on a number of different activated carbons and the results compared with experimental data. In all cases good agreement is obtained between theory and experiment. It is s

β¦ Synopsis
The adsorption of aqueous mercury species from chloride solutions on a number of activated carbons has been studied. It was found that whereas the adsorption of neutral HgCl, or positive Hg'+ was very low, significant quantities of the tetrachloromercury(I1) complex, HgCI$-, were adsorbed. Adsorption isotherms of this complex were measured at different pH values, and the results analysed by the Langmuir equation and by a simple surface ionization and specific adsorption model in order to obtain estimates of the adsorption stoichiometry and the mean free energy of adsorption.
