Abstract: | Pb2+ adsorption onto a soil by irrigation of sewage in the Pearl River Delta of South China was examined as a function of the
reaction time, solution pH, initial lead concentration, organic matter (humic acid) and competitive ions (Cu2+). The adsorption of Pb2+ onto the soil was investigated on batch equilibrium adsorption experiments. Results show that the Pb2+ adsorption on the soil is relatively rapid in the first 30 min and reaches equilibrium at 2 h, and the kinetics of the adsorption
process on the soil is well characterized by the pseudo-second order reaction rate. Langmuir, Freundlich and Temkin isothermal
models are fit for the adsorption of Pb2+ onto the soil, and the maximum amount of Pb2+ adsorption (Q
m) is 7.47 mg/g. The amount of Pb2+ adsorption increases with increasing the pH at the range of 1.2–4.5 and reaches a plateau at the range of 4.5–12. The presence
of humic acid in soil decreases the adsorption of Pb2+ onto the soil at solution pH of 8 since the negatively charged humic acid with Pb2+ is difficult to be adsorbed on the negatively charged soil surface. The adsorption of Pb2+ onto the soil also decreases in the presence of Cu2+ due to the competition adsorption between Pb2+ and Cu2+. |
