Abstract
â¶ Adsorption-desorption kinetics of arsenate on a Fe(III)-modified montmorillonite is reported. â¶ Fe(III) species are the responsible for arsenate adsorption. â¶ The adsorption takes place in a two-step mechanism. â¶ Adsorption and desorption studies reflect the presence of externally and internally adsorbed arsenate. â¶ Fe(III) species in Fe-M are more efficient in binding arsenate than in ferrihydrite or goethite.
