The present work investigated the adsorption and desorption behaviors of Pb(II) on montmorillonite. The adsorption experiments were carried out using batch process. The results show that the adsorption is dependent on the pH value of the medium, and the uptake of Pb(II) increases with the pH increasing in the pH range of 2.0-10.0. The adsorption kinetics is in better agreement with pseudo-second order kinetics, and the adsorption data is a good fit with Langmuir isotherm. The presence of EDTA may result in a decrease of the amount of Pb(II) adsorbed. The presence of electrolyte and EDTA may enhance the desorption of Pb(II) ions adsorbed. The adsorption mechanism of Pb(II) on montmorillonite may be explained in two aspects: the chemical binding between Pb(II) ions and surface hydroxyl groups; and the electrostatic binding between Pb(II) ions and the permanent negatively charged sites of montmorillonite.
