Method of Modified Corncob Adsorbing Heavy Metal Ions from Water

Article Preview

Abstract:

Experiment used the microwave and the adjustment of pH to modify corncob to adsorb heavy metal ions (Zn2+, Pb2+) from Water. In order to find out the best adsorption condition on the liquor which concentrations of Zn2+ and Pb2+ were 30 mg/L respective, the experiment used method of control variables and the modified corncob adsorption rate of Zn2+ was the reference index. The results indicated that when corncob diameter, dosage, absorbing time, shaking speed and the pH value of liquor zinc chloride were 1.5mm, 20mg/L, 30min, 180rpm and 6, respectively, the adsorption rate of Zn2+ and Pb2+ reached the highest by 76.67% and 98.54%. The results showed that modified corncob adsorption rate of Zn2+ and Pb2+ were more than 80% and 98% at low concentrations. In conclusion, modified corncob had a good adsorption property of heavy metal ions in water.
