Abstract

In the present study, pure bentonite and bentonite modified by HNO3, EDTA, and HDTMA are adsorbents. The changes on the surfaces of bentonite samples are studied by IR spectroscopy. The adsorption of aniline, phenol, and phenol derivatives on these adsorbents is examined by means of gas chromatography. As the result of these examinations, it is seen that the adsorption capacities of clay-organic complexes (bentonite-EDTA and bentonite-HDTMA) are higher than those of bentonite-HNO3 and pure bentonite.
