Abstract

The effect of temperature on the sorption behavior of a synthesized gel structurally close to the fluorine mica mineral, sodium potassium fluorophologopite, was studied for the heavy metal ions Cd2+, Hg2+, and Pb2+. The synthesized gel was characterized by X-ray powder pattern, energy dispersive spectrometry, infrared spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis and was found to have the composition Na0.5K0.5Mg(AlSi3O10)F2·6H2O. The effect of temperature on sorption was studied with respect to varying concentrations of metal ions. The overall sorption capacity of the synthesized gel was found to depend on the number of ion active groups per unit weight of the material. The data were expressed in terms of distribution coefficients (K d). Sorption data followed Freundlich adsorption isotherms. Studies showed that sorption decreased as the concentration of metal ions increased and increased as the temperature grew, which was evidence that the process was endothermic.
