Abstract

The issues of pollution of fresh water bodies with industrial wastewater containing cadmium ions Cd + 2, lead Pb + 2 and copper Cu + 2 are considered, on the basis of the studies it has been established: the sorption efficiency decreases with an increase in the grain size of briquetted peat; The most efficient process of sorption of ions by briquetted peat proceeds within 5 minutes of contact, then it slows down. Within 5 minutes, up to 91% of Сd + 2 ions, 98% of Pb + 2 ions, 90% of copper ions Cu + 2 are removed, the sorption capacity at saturation was: for Сd + 2 - 0.0778 mMol / g ( 8.75 mg / g), for Pb + 2 - 0.8205 mMol / g (170.00 mg / g), for Cu + 2 - 2.707 mMol / g (172 mg / g). The obtained research results indicate the possibility of using briquetted peat as an effective sorbent for wastewater treatment. On the basis of the research carried out, a technology has been developed for water purification from cadmium, lead, and copper ions.
