Abstract
This In this study, the Ca-Al layered double hydroxide was used as a potential adsorbent for the removal of Congo red from aqueous solutions. The effects of Initial concentration and contact time on the adsorption properties of Congo red by Ca-Al LDHs were studied. The removal rate of Conge red reached to 59.416 mg/g under room temperature with 0.2g of adsorbent, initial concentration of 50 ppm, adsorption time of 210 min, shaking speed of 90r/min. The experimental equilibrium data for the removal of Congo red were evaluated by various isotherm models. The pseudo-second-order kinetic models were found to fit the adsorption kinetics, and the equilibrium data were appropriately fitted to Langmuir and Freundlich model adsorption isotherm.
