Abstract: | The aim of this research is to investigate sorption characteristics of polyaniline/polypyrrole copolymer nanofibers (PANI/PPy copolymer nanofibers) for the removal of Co(II) ions from aqueous solution. The adsorbent is characterized using FE-SEM, TEM, FTIR, TGA, DSC and BET surface area. The sorption of Co(II) ions by batch method is applied and the optimum conditions are investigated. In optimum condition, removal efficiency was 99.68% for 100 mg L?1 Co(II) solution. It is found that temperature has a positive effect on the removal efficiency. It can be concluded that PANI/PPy copolymer nanofibers are potentially able to removal of Co(II) ions from aqueous solutions. |
