Heavy metal pollution has become one of the most serious environmental problems today due to its difficulty in removal, especially in aquatic environments. The technologies for heavy metal ion removal from aqueous solutions are, chemical treatment, physico-chemical treatment and biological treatment. However, the existing methods are relatively expensive. Therefore, there is an urgency that some environmentally sound and practically feasible technologies or sorbents are needed to be developed. In this study, a modified montmorillonite was used for the removal of Cd2+ ions from aqueous solutions. The influence of various operating parameters on the adsorption process was investigated. The kinetics and equilibrium adsorption of Cd2+ ions from aqueous solutions using the modified montmorillonite were also discussed in detail. The objective of this study is to provide fundamental information on the adsorption of heavy metals from aqueous solution on the modified montmorillonite and to investigate the possible mechanisms.Keywords

The presence of bromate in drinking water has attracted much attention, because it is a carcinogen and mutagenic to humans. Activated carbon is an effective adsorbent material widely used in water treatment. In order to enhance the adsorption of bromate ion on activated carbon, the modified activated carbon was obtained from granular activated carbon by chemical activation using cationic surfactant as an activator. The adsorption characteristics of bromate ion on the modified activated carbon were investigated through adsorption experiments. The effects of temperature, pH in solution, contact time and initial bromate concentration on bromate adsorption by the modified activated carbon were investigated. The experimental data were analysed by the Langmuir and Freundlich models of adsorption. Kinetic adsorption data were analysed by the pseudo-first-order kinetic model and the pseudo-second-order model respectively. The thermodynamics parameters were also calculated.Keywords
