Abstract

Adsorption of some heavy metal ions such as lead, Pb(II), Copper, Cu(II), Iron, Fe(III), Manganese, Mn(II) and Zinc, Zn(II) by sorption on kaolinite clay was investigated. Kaolinite clay is considered as a good ion exchanger since it is easily available at low cost and high capacity. The effects of contact time, pH, volume of an aqueous to mass of kaolinite clay and concentration of metal ions were studied. Data show that kaolinite clay favorably adsorbs the current heavy metal ions and their adsorption are belong to Freundlich isotherm model.
