Abstract
⺠A zirconia-based sorbent is efficient for methylated arsenic removal from water. ⺠The maximum adsorption capacity for monomethylarsonic acid (MMA) is 1.43 mmol/g. ⺠The adsorption of MMA by the nanostructured sorbent is highly pH-dependent. ⺠Pseudo-first order and Langmuir models descript the kinetics and isotherm well. ⺠From spectroscopic analysis, an anion exchange adsorption mechanism is proposed.
