Adsorption of cadmium by using regular Zn-AlC0₃ hydrotalcite / Zuritah A.Kadir
Heavy metals pollution is very serious problem in waste water pollution around industrial area. In this study, Zn-AlCO₃ LDH was investigated as an alternatively low-cost adsorbent for the adsorption of cadmium in aqueous solution. Zn-AlCO₃ LDH with ratio 4 was synthesis by co-precipitations method a...

Heavy metals pollution is very serious problem in waste water pollution around industrial area. In this study, Zn-AlCO₃ LDH was investigated as an alternatively low-cost adsorbent for the adsorption of cadmium in aqueous solution.

X-Ray Diffractometer (XRD) pattern showed the presence sharp peaks, signifying high crystallinity with d₀₀₃ of 7.63 Å which demonstrated general features of LDHs phase without impurity phase. The different parameters that affect the adsorption process were studied included contact time, temperature, adsorbent dosage, initial concentration and pH.
