摘要

Adsorption of silver ions from aqueous solution onto H2TiO3 was studied. Equilibrium experimental studies were performed to determine the adsorption capacity of H2TiO3 for silver ion at various pH values. Batch experiments were conducted in the range of pH value 3-7 and silver ions concentration 10-200 mg/L. The results show that the adsorption is strongly dependent on pH value. The equilibrium absorption capacity of H2TiO3 increases significantly with the increase of pH value from 3 to 7. The adsorption of silver ion obeys the Langmuir isothermal equation well in the concentration range studied, the adsorption constant is 0.054 7, 0.052 4, 0.088 1 at pH 5, 6 and 7, respectively, and the maximum adsorption capacities are 23.64, 29.76 and 40.82 mg/g.
