Abstract |
Copper is a common heavy metals which is discharged from various industries. In previous studies, it can be seen that soil is a potential adsorbent to remove heavy metal from waste water. This paper presents the effect of temperature on the sorption capacity of Copper by soils found in the upper part of Northeastern, Thailand. The experiments were done by using batch equilibrium test method. The adsorptions were tested and measured at temperatures between 30 to 50 degrees of Celsius and the initial concentrations of heavy metals are in the range of 100 to 1000 mg/L. The results from the experimental study showed that the adsorption isotherms of the soils can be satisfactorily described by Langmuir model. It is also found that temperature plays an importance role to the sorption capacity of the heavy metals by soils. Higher temperature of heavy metal solutions can make the higher sorption capacity. |
