Abstract
Effect of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) on the adsorption of Zn(II) and Ni(II) on CMOC was investigated. Addition of SDS favored the adsorption process. Adsorption process was found to be dependent on concentration, pH, dose, contact time and temperature. Thermodynamic studies showed that the process is endothermic and spontaneous. The spontaneity increases with increase in temperature. D-R isotherm suggests that the adsorption is chemical in nature. Kinetics studies showed better applicability of pseudo second order model. Reichenberg equation showed that pore diffusion was not only the rate determining step but some other process like film diffusion was also involved in the adsorption. These metals could be desorbed (75-80%) with 0.1Â M HCl as eluent.
