Abstract
The chromium(III) phosphate was observed to have a high affinity towards Pb2+ ion and the sorption capacities were found to be in the order: Pb2+ >Cu2+ >Cd2+ >Ni2+. Different characterization methods i.e. FTIR, SEM and EDX were employed to investigate the sorption mechanism of Pb2+ by chromium(III) phosphate, which showed that no new solid phases were present in the residue after sorption of Pb2+. The exchange between protons from the surface and Pb2+ from solutions was found to be responsible for Pb2+ sorption by chromium (III) phosphate.
