Al(OH)(3) modified nickel slag adsorbent was prepared by sintering technology. The structure of the sample was characterized by BET, XRD, IR, SEM and EDAX. The sample's adsorption performance of Pb2+ and Cu2+ from aqueous solution was studied. Results indicated that the adsorbent is a loose and porous mesoporous material. Its surface had mass aluminosilicate, high-activity gamma-Al2O3 and its pH ranges from 4 to 12 that all have negative charges. The BET surface of the adsorbent is 23.90 m(2)/g. Furthermore, its surface contains rich oxygenic functional groups, which could not only provide abundant adsorption sites for Pb2+ and Cu2+, but also improve the adsorption performance of Pb2+ and Cu2+ from waste water through the complexation of heavy metal ions. The best pH values selected in the adsorption of Pb2+ and Cu2+ are 6 and 5, respectively. With the increase of the initial concentration of simulated solution, the adsorption capacities of Pb2+ and Cu2+ gradually increased but the removal rates showed a downward trend. The competitive adsorption results of Pb2+ and Cu2+ showed that Pb2+ has better preferential adsorption than Cu2+.
