Removal of Pb(II), Cd(II), Zn(II), and Cu(II) from aqueous solutions using the adsorption process on bentonite has been investigated. In order to find out the effect of temperature on adsorption, the experiments were conducted at 20, 35, and 50degreesC. For all the metals, maximum adsorption was obs

β¦ Synopsis
The adsorption behaviour of Fe(II) and Mn(II) onto bentonite was studied as a function of temperature under optimized conditions of shaking time, amount of adsorbent, pH, and concentration of the adsorbate. Thermodynamic parameters such as H o and S o were calculated from the slope and intercept of the linear plot of ln K D against 1/T . Analysis of absorption results obtained at T = (298, 303, 313, and 323) K showed that the adsorption pattern on bentonite followed the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm. A flame atomic absorption spectrometer was used for measuring the concentration of the metals.
