Abstract
Clays and aluminosilicate materials are known as effective sorbents for purification of wastewater from various types of contaminants. Some properties and sorption activity of materials based on the zeolite of Shankanai deposit and Chamotte clay towards Cd2+ ions were analyzed in the present work. The structural characteristics of the studied objects, their qualitative and quantitative composition were determined by the SEM and EDAX methods. It was found that maximum adsorption capacity (qe) of the initial zeolite for extraction Cd2+ ions is (7.3±0.11) mg/g, while for Chamotte clay this value equals to (5.3±0.12) mg/g. After modification with polyvinylpyrrolidone, qe increased to (10.1±0.08) mg/g for zeolite, and (8.5±0.15) mg/g for Chamotte clay. Developed specific surface of the composite material (sorbent) and complexation with the active centres of thepolymer couldbe a resultof Cd2+ ions binding.
