Abstract
Selective sorption of lead, cadmium, and nickel ions on recycled waste porous glass beads was investigated. Single-metal equilibrations were carried out in demineralized water and ternary metal equilibrations were carried out in demi- and tap water. Freundlich isotherm gave a good correlation of the experimental data. Maximum metal retention (qmax) in single-ion solutions were 18.66 mg= gRPWG (0.090 mmol=gRPWG), 4.83mg=gRPWG (0.043 mmol=gRPWG), 4.00mg=gRPWG (0.068 mmol=gRPWG), respectively, for Pbþ2, Cdþ2, and Niþ2, and lower figures were in the case of ternary systems: 13.50 mg=gRPWG(0.065 mmol=gRPWG), 2.23 (0.020 mmol= gRPWG), 2.05 mg=gRPWG(0.034 mmol=gRPWG), respectively, for Pbþ2, Cdþ2, and Niþ2, with further drastic reduction in tap water. Metal exhausted beads were used as thermal insulators in cement mortars, minimizing their potential impact in the environment.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
